2012 Challenge: Venice in February

February 1 to February 28, 2012



FINISHED

Snow Feathers and Dolce Bellezza, are hosting a short, simple, and marvelous reading challenge: read one, two or how many books you would like and have the time for, that are related to and/or based in Venice.

They chose Venice "because it's a unique city, with a dreamlike atmosphere and yet, with secrets to discover. Whoever visited Venice once still wishes to go back and this challenge may be the next best thing."

Like so many people, I love Venice.  And since it doesn't look like I'll be going back any time soon, I am always in the mood to read books about La Serenissima.

Ideas

I made this list of Venice books a while back.  There is also a list on the Venice in February site.  And there is a much lengthier list of Venice books on a great website called Fictional Cities.

BOOK POSSIBILITIES AND REVIEWS

I ended up reading two books for this challenge, but I only reviewed one of them:
One will also count as my Italy book for the European Reading Challenge.



17 Days to Christmas!
