There is no time limit on this challenge, you can take as much or as little time as you need to complete it. There are also no rules regarding genre or age range - it's completely up to you!

What you need to do:

1. Create a new shelf in your "My Books" page and title it something like 'Around The World'.
2. Every time you finish a book set in a different country, add it to this shelf.
3. Once you've got 50 books set in 50 countries you're done!!

Feel free to post your progress and final results in this thread!

Phrynne Sounds fun. I can do Scotland, England, Norway, America and Australia almost straight away. After that it will get harder:) I will give it a go.

Ashlee Yep, UK, Aus and US are definitely the easy ones! I was excited to find Iceland and Iraq when I went back over my bookshelf :) ....too bad make-believe countries don't count, as so many of my books are fantasy!

Carolyn I'm in! This sounds like a real challenge - 50 countries may take me some time! I'm not even sure if I can list 50 countries :)
