The 2014 Global Reading Challenge (2014GRC) challenges you to expand your reading boundaries, go where you haven't been before, move a little outside your comfort zone. It is hosted by Kerrie of MYSTERIES in PARADISE.
The goal is to read one or more novels from each of these continents in the course of 2014:
Africa
Asia
Australasia
Europe
North America
South America (please include Central America where it is most convenient for you)
and
The Seventh Continent (here you can either choose Antarctica or your own ´seventh´ setting, eg the sea, the space, a supernatural/paranormal world, history, the future – you name it).
- You may read any genre so long as the books are fiction. There are three levels: Either read one book, two books or three books from each continent.
- Decide which level you will attempt, although you can change that later if you wish.

Tracy, I'm looking forward to your choices for Asia. There's some good fiction coming out of Sri Lanka though I can't tell you offhand.
Tracy - I' admire the way you take on challenges. I'll be very interested in your reviews as you 'travel.'
Well, I know there will be at least one Narayan book. And I will be looking out for other authors. That 52 books in 52 weeks site sometimes features books in that area.
Margot, I really am trying to cut back on challenges, but they are just too tempting.
Oh, I admire your gumption! Look forward to seeing what you come up with chum.
Sergio, my problem is I want to read everything. Vintage books, new books, espionage, set in many different locations.
Looking forward to your reviews, Tracy.
Thanks, Sarah, I pretty much have all the books picked out and am eager to get to them.
Ditto what Sarah said, I am looking forward to your reviews.
Thanks, Keishon, and I look forward to seeing what you read in 2014.
