Weekly Event hosted by Lost In BooksRebecca at Lost in Books is hosting a new weekly event that readers of global literature will love. Take Me Away Saturday is all about books that take place in different cultures and are about different cultures. Rebecca writes:
Each week I will feature a different country or culture (ex. Cherokee, Jewish, etc. that do not have a specific country per se) and list some books that can transport you there.
I am keeping a map of the countries we visit and a list of the specific cultures...
This week, Rebecca is visiting Turkey. To learn more and to suggest books which fit each week's travels, visit Rebecca every Saturday.
What a good idea!Will go check it out.Thanks!
