In connection with my Around the World in 80 Books reading project, I have created, as an additional reference point, a reading list containing the books currently on my TBR with an "Africa" shelving:
http://booklikes.com/apps/reading-lists/974/africa
The list includes the three books set in Africa I already read in 2019, but none read prior to this year.
If anybody has recommendations for any of the countries not yet represented on my TBR, that would be phantastic (double extra brownie points for books by women authors). Those countries are:
Burundi
Cameroon
Cape Verde
Chad
Comoros Islands
Republic of Congo (as opposed to Democratic Republic of Congo, for which I already have several books)
Djibouti
Equatorial Guinea
French Southern Territories
Gambia
Guinea-Bissau
Ivory Coast
Madagascar
Malawi
Maldives
Mauritius
Mayotte
Niger
Réunion
Seychelles
Swaziland
Western Sahara
All recs welcome of course, but I'm finding I have a surprising amount of books on my Africa TBR already, for more countries than I'd have thought before I started compiling this list (particularly, though, for Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa), so I'm mainly trying to fill in the blanks at this point. Thank you all in advance!

ETA: In case anyone is wondering, I'm deleting countries from the above search list after having added books to my TBR / reading list based on the recommendations made. So far I've thus deleted South Sudan, Uganda, and Namibia.
