Klajdi Zaimi (goodreadscomklajdizaimi) | 22 comments Feel free to make any book suggestions as I'm still on the editing progress:) Thank you!

Zaz | 2969 comments I'll read Around the world too :)

I haven't read the book from HG Wells you'll read for week 1. I read 2 of his books this year, they felt a bit dated but it was interesting to read them from a cultural point of view. This man wrote really unusual scifi books for his time!

Artemis Fowl has a very modern world building for the fairies, I totally enjoyed this part. I only read the 1st book so I'm looking forward to some more in 2016!

Aglaea | 369 comments Hi, I have HG Wells and Rebecca on my list, too. Will look forward to seeing your opinions on them!

Sophie (sawphie) | 2826 comments I never heard of The First Men in the Moon, now I want to read it! I'm reading The Importance of Being Earnest for the 2015 challenge, I hope it's good.

Maple (maplerie) | 1025 comments You've got a great start to your list! I can't wait to see your others. For week 14 I've been recommending What If?: Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions. I haven't read it yet, but it looks really good. It's on my 2016 list, along with several others.
