I voted away from the Western European and US in the poll. I already have a solid comprehension of many dominant authors from these regions. I would really hope to explore some lesser known authors to increase my cultural diversity, literally. Hoping that some of these books will lead me to others, and some interesting discussion.
B> Ditto.
This is so interesting. So far, 3 people have voted and none of the countries has got 3 votes. :)
I picked twelve since that is the number of months. I could have picked more but I had to draw a limit.
Hah! Didn't think of it at the time of voting but, as it turns out, I picked 12 countries as well (purely coincidental).
I think I'll wait til the end to vote, I've learned my lesson.
And this time I'm gonna put it on my calender to remind me to vote!!
I went with Virgil's idea, and I voted for 12 countries as well. I am hoping next year will be an interesting year for reading, and it is sure to expand my horizons a bit:)
I picked nine: Russia, USA, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Greece, and Sweden.
Top 12 countries at the moment:
Russia 10
India 8
Greece 8
Germany 8
Ireland 7
USA 6
UK 6
Japan 6
Italy 5
France 5
China 5
Canada 5
Russia??? Russia?!???!!! :bawling:
I only voted for six countries. It didnt cross my mind to vote for twelve. I also forgot to vote for mexico which was one of my suggestions.:( (hits herself with idiot stick)

Would India include Anglo-indians like Kipling and Orwell?
