I've finished Animal Farm by George Orwell which is set in England.

As multiple locations are referred to in the book I tried to be clever in choosing an obscure/harder to find letter. I went with Yokohama, a city in Japan. No doubt though I will regret not choosing another letter towards the end of the challenge!
You can switch your books during the challenge if you notice you could use a book you already took for another letter. E.g. if you find another book set in a place starting with a Y but desperately need a book for let's say I, you can always switch Around the World in 80 Days to I.
I'll probably do the same thing- that is, as long as I can remember what other places a book was set at :)

Brilliant, thank you - I didn't realise we could do that. It will certainly help if I do manage to reach the end.
