Hi, everybody! It's end of June already, and we're like half-way through the Language Freak Summer Challenge! So the question is...
We haven't had a lot of reviews this month, just two (unless I've missed yours, then please tell me so!). I hope this means you are all having a great time outside! Are you? :)
I've read one book in Czech and have started another one, which is actually not a book, but an anthology for literature classes in Czech schools. I'm especially interested in the sections about Czech literature, because where else do you find that kind of info? :) That leaves me with only one book in German to go to finish the challenge, but I hope to read more than the minimum! There are still 2 months left!
Two new participants have joined us this month, so say hello to:
- Natalie @ Many Media Musings - French and maybe Arabic, Irish, or Scottish Gaelic
- Juleschka @ Buchlogbuch - Russian and maybe Croatian
- a hot cup of pleasure - Urdu
Don't forget, that you can find the list of all the participants in sign-up post, see the link on the top of the sidebar.

There is still some time until the end of the month, so if you've read something in a foreign language and want to write about your experience, you still have time!
Good luck with your reading and see you in the end of July!
