TIL that there are events on Bookmeter! And they of course revolve around books and reading.
One thing especially caught my interest:
The British newspaper “The Guardian” once published a list of 1000 novels you need to read before you die, grouped into 7 categories, and this challenge is about reading one or more books from one of these categories. The challenge’s official time is the middle of the month (the next one is March 10 to 12) but you can read the book sooner or later as well. Of course the books are written in whatever language but there seem to be some Japanese books in the mix as well (or maybe they are just translations, did not check them out). But as people here are also reading books in other languages, I thought maybe you’d be interested in any case. This month’s category is Comedy. I’ve decided to read “Infinite Jest” by David Foster Wallace as it was recommended to me by a friend recently, and it’s on that list as well, so I took this as a sign
