I know what you mean, I've signed up for 3 challenges already and then I saw this post and I thought ohhh I want to do this too! And a historical fiction challenge. I'm trying to promise myself that 5 challenges will be my limit (YA/MG Debut, GLBTQ, South Asian, Historical Fiction and Global Reading). We'll see how that turns out!
I really liked world history because while I love America it was really great to finally learn about other countries and their history. A lot of information, but so fascinating :)
Now you know why I always say 'I'm open to new challenges', lol!
This challenge is similar to a personal challenge I'm planning on doing next year, only mine includes nonfiction and focuses on individual countries within various regions. :)
Thank you very much for posting about my challenge. I am looking forward to hosting this one as it is the first time I have tried something like this.
