And here is a list of all the topics for the rest of the year.

This week’s topic is Translations.
It's often very tempting to go with the same books and authors that I used before because they are my favourites. However, I have tried this time to only use titles I never mentioned before and have started with the oldest ones I reviewed.
As you can see, I have chosen books translated from Russian, Swedish, German, Turkish and Finnish. I am looking forward to seeing what other readers have chosen.
