It's actually made me look at countries I've read authors from and it's a pretty sad list. I've read three Australian authors which puts Australia pretty high on my list. I've only read 36 Canadian books in recent memory which is pretty terrible for my country of origin and residence.

I think I might blow up all of my potential reading challenges and go for an around-the-world challenge instead and try to be a little more worldly. Fit in twenty countries I haven't read an author from as well as a bunch of Canadiana?

I remember reading about The Slap and thinking it sounded interesting. Maybe that will be part of next year's challenge, although I had penciled in David Malouf for an award-winner challenge. Maybe The Conversations at Curlow Creek or The Great World.
