Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is books that take place in another country. I live in the U.S. so the books I list will be my favorites that take place in a country other than the U.S.A. but are also informative about the culture/beliefs/history of each country.

Lovely list, Andrea! I really loved The Poisonwood Bible and Outlander, and enjoyed The Sandalwood Tree. I can’t believe I still haven’t read All the Light We Haven’t Seen or Call the Midwife!

Have you watched the Call the Midwife TV series? I’m in the second season and it’s followed the books very closely. I loved all 3 books and the show so far!

Yes! I’m all caught up with the most recent (seventh?) season. I adore the show and should really check out the books.
