[close] Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or exploring the world through books, you have come to the right place! ATW80 began in 2009 as a challenge on TNBBC.

Want to read about the world? We have close to 50,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each week. I personally started reading around the world in 2008.

There doesn't seem to be many books of that description, there must be more but I've only found about 4 on this website ;( so, if you know of more please join and share. I might expand this book club to include books about black British gay/bi men too, if all goes smoothly. I've included bi because sexuality is/was fluid for many women in these books and in reality. Any colour or sexuality can join as long as you are supportive and have a genuine interest in reading such books.
