Books finished: I should be finished with my first book tomorrow!

Day 2 Challenge, hosted by The Book Monsters: Book Scavenger Hunt

1. A Book that begins with “B”  (for Bout of Books!) - Beauvallet by Georgette Heyer

2. A book you’re planning to read/currently reading for Bout of Books - The Curiosity Keeper by Sarah E. Ladd

3. Blue Book(s) - Midnight Sea & Distant Echoes by Colleen Coble, The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks, & Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen

4. Books from your favorite genre! - My favorite genre is almost any type of Christian fiction, so I chose Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen to represent historical and Lonestar Sanctuary by Colleen Coble to represent contemporary/suspense.

5. A book on your TBR shelf, or your full TBR shelves - This picture on the bottom right doesn't even begin to cover the amount of books on my shelf that I haven't read yet.

Bout of Books 14 | Day 1

It's finally here! My very first Bout of Books week... and I'm not off to a very good start. I only managed to read half of The Curiosity Keeper by Sarah E. Ladd today. But, tomorrow is a new day!

On to today's challenge, hosted by Between Library Shelves:

Today's challenge is to list 3 to 6 books of fiction that take place in countries other than the one you currently reside in. Some countries are easy to find books set in them, but possibly the more challenging of picks will be the ones that intrigue the most. All you need to do is list the books of choice on your blog, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, YouTube, etc., and display them how you wish. BE CREATIVE! Then come back here and link up your results, and then visit other participants' blogs and social media link-ups and see what books they chose for the challenge.

If posting on Twitter, Instagram and/or other social media platforms, please use #FictionalWorldTravel.

As I was searching for books to use in this challenge (on my shelves and my Nook), I realized I've not read that many books set in other countries (besides England), so I went to the linky for some inspiration! Here's the books I've chosen:

Daughter of Silk by Linda Lee Chaikin - Paris, France

Deadly Devotion by Sandra Orchard - Port Aster (based on Niagara, Ontario)

Princess Ever After by Rachel Hauck - The Grand Duchy of Hessenberg

The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer - London, England

Torn Asunder by Alana Terry - North Korea

When Calls the Heart by Janette Oke - Canadian Frontier
