Slow Month at Work = New Books!

It's been a long time since I've posted as work has kept me pretty busy. Fortunately, I recently had a chance to buy a few more internationally flavored books.* I even finished one!

India
The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga

South Korea
A Gesture Life by Chang-Rae Lee

Google tells me that there are approximately** 196 countries in the world. I have read 5 novels from 5 different countries so that means I am around 5% through. Progress.


*From a used bookstore. Yay real bookstores! Yay browsing!
** Apparently what constitutes a country is more complicated than one might think.
