I’m willing to give it a try though! Here are my categories: 1. Books published in 2009 2. Books short listed for Booker Prize 3. Books short listed for the Orange Prize 4. Non - Fiction 5. Books in translation 6. Books set in America 7. Books set in Asia 8. Books set in Europe 9. Classics 2farmlanebooksI've just finished my first two books - only 79 left to go! 1.
