The next stop after Argentina’s Fever Dream on my reading around the world challenge is Armenia. (Because I’m OCD when it comes to books, I’m reading alphabetically.)

Fever Dream
Although I proceed at almost the pace of Paul Salopek’s Out of Eden Walk, I’m reading my way around the world. After reading Jamaica Kincaid’s Annie John for Antigua and Barbuda at the end of 2021, the next nation on the list was Argentina. I ended up reading Samanta Schweblin’s Fever Dream. Months have passed since I read it, but it’s still just as sharp in mind as when I put it down. Which is to say, it’s pretty fuzzy. early in 2022, but I’m only now getting around to writing about it.

My 2021 In Books
It really is quite satisfying to look back over the year and be reminded of all the books I read. It’s kind of like catching up with old friends.

Antigua and Barbuda: Annie John
I am slowly working my way through countries that start with A in the Read the World (or Reading Around the World, depending where you look) Challenge. That means that after reading Transparent City from Angola, the next destination was Antigua and Barbuda. It’s another country I knew next to nothing about, so my homebound hide was excited to visit, even if it was only between the pages of a book.
