European Reading Challenge 2013

So many blogs, so many challenges, a lot of the blogs I follow come up with one sort of challenge or another and I love participating. It doesn't mean I have to read more, I just keep better track of what I read.

I recently found this nice one on Rose City Reader's Blog: 2013 European Reading Challenge. The idea is to read books by European authors or set in European countries and I noticed that I had read quite a few of those already this year. They even posted a list of the 50 sovereign states of Europe.

I placed the books mainly where they were set, unless otherwise stated.
Any book that has not been translated into English, I translated the title and put it in [] square brackets. 
I have added links to the countries where I reviewed a book already, whether this year or before.
