I see you have War & Peace as a choice. I get scared of the books go over 700 pages. I think that is my limit any more and I won't finish it. Good Luck! I see you have War & Peace as a choice.

Myrthe: I came up with the same justification :) I had all these chunky books on my lists for other challenges...so I could do this one without really adding any extra books to my reading!

I first heard about him last year in my Latin American politics class, when we were talking about Central America, and I thought it was cool that he was a writer and a politician, but I was a bit confused on why so many bloggers thought it was just as cool. lol ;) Thanks for clearing the Llosa thing up!

I couldn't resist this challenge either! I will reading some chunksters for the Russian Reading Challenge anyway and I have a few more on my TBR-pile, so I figured I'll be reading at least four books that qualify anyway in 2008. Haha!

Its been on my shelf for quite some time...and I really do need to get to it! Pillars will be a re-read for me (I read it when it was first published which was some time ago)...I have the sequel that just came out, so I wanted to re-read it. The Llosa book is for a Yahoo book group (books in translation) so that may be why you are seeing it listed out there on several lists :) Eva: I’ve heard that about Shantaram from several people.

I'm also reading War and Peace and The Pillars of the Earth, but for different challenges. It seems that Llosa book is getting kind of popular among book blogs (I've seen it on a few challenge lists)...I'll be looking forward to your review! Shantaram was really, really good.
