>Typically British Reading Challenge 2010

>

I just realise that I have not read enough British authors/books this year but I’ve just started Martin Edwards’ The Coffin Trail. Therefore I thought it might be a good idea to join this challenge hosted by Book Chick City. This Challenge runs from Jan 1st to Dec 31st, 2010. Only books started on January 1st counts and there are four levels:

"Put The Kettle On" – Read 2 Typically British novels.

"Gordon Bennett" – Read 4 Typically British novels.

"Bob’s Your Uncle" – Read 6 Typically British novels.

"Cream Crackered" – Read 8 Typically British novels.

Any book format counts. Must be fiction not non-fiction. As always I will voluntarily restricted myself to crime fiction books. And since I have in my TBR pile Barbara Vine’s The Birthday Present it should not all that difficult to reach the first level before December 31st. Anyhow my goal is to read at least 6 books and reach the third level. It would be nice if I can choose two authors from Wales, Scotland and England.

Your suggestions will be taken into consideration and they are more than welcome.
