Read Around the World, Again

Well, I tried to find book set in every country. Countries like San Marino and Liechtenstein proved most difficult. Also finding a book about Vatican City that isn't a thriller was hard. I got some ideas from different blogs and newspaper articles. A fair amount are nonfiction, but seem to be worth a look.
