Doret, t...Welcome, Akilah! It's never to late.<br /><br />Doret, that's a good question. The ones I've thought of either aren't YA (e.g., The Kite Runner) or aren't really set in another country (e.g., Oscar Wao--parts take place in the D.R. but the protagonist is in America). I'll keep thinking.<br /><br />Zetta and Nymeth, thanks for the positive feedback. If you have any specific suggestions for future topics, I welcome ideas!Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745786643511417426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651809984287034257.post-33332008550246561352009-08-13T17:26:20.006-07:002009-08-13T17:26:20.006-07:00Great round up.
