Books from around the World

I find this to be an interesting idea.  As a bibliophile, I find the idea intriguing, and I'll try to find some of these books to add to my reading "Bucket List".

This is from a news article I read.  The link follows to her website / blog and I am copying and pasting her suggested list.  It looks like one must click each country name to see which book she chose to read however. As Time permits I'll try to get a short list of the books she actually wrote and highlight them in Orange as I have done

Feeling Invincible

(^,^)

I can't sing and groove like Shakira.

I can never draw or paint a Mona Lisa.

I'm not as brilliant as Einstein.

I wish I could write like Mark Twain.

Sometimes I wonder what if I were a doctor, a pilot

A business tycoon or an astronaut?

But fate couldn't even turn me into an artist.

Once in a while it makes me into a small-time philanthropist.

Life didn't mold me into an icon.

Throw back Thursday, had a camera called Ikon.

Now realizing what I missed and all  that I never will be

Still, my life is comp

Rain drops falling on my face,

 touching to my soul, turning my heart so pure,

letting me feel so empty, Making me feel so crystal clear ,

spinning me to dance with the nature,

Pinching my all qualms,

Wanting me to view it more,

dying to be under the rain, the nature shower for long,

Loving to view the wet leaves, looking so beautiful ...........

Imaging the childhood paper Boats,

jumping on the water, thrilling with fullest heart

 Feeling so romantic O GOD ! Thanking you God  for all the happiness I ha
