This challenge sounds like fun. My road, my rules:
no time limit, books must come from the Tipping Tower of Tomes that I already own.
Oops, broke my rule - Mudbound was a library loan

Welcome to the group - looking forward to following your progress.

I've got my first state. It will be the lovely state of Maine. I'm going to be reading it in February for TIOLI so stay tuned for the title.

I finished my first state book Eternal on the water (Maine). Here is my review http://www.librarything.com/profile_reviews.php?view=Carmenere.

Finished my second book which contains the state of Massachussetts, specifically the Boston area. here is my review of The Last Dickens

Playing a little catch up.

New York - Old New York review is here

Virginia/Washington D.C - The Simple Truth by David Baldacci and that review can be found here under the review for the aforementioned Old New York

Mississippi - Mudbound by Hillary Jordan my review

Updating my states to include California Sliding into Home and New Mexico The Dissemblers.

Waking this thread out of dormancy to add several completed books.

Added: Hoot Florida
Summer of Shadows Ohio
The Outsiders Oklahoma
Stiches Michigan
Things Not Seen Illinois

Here's my latest state covered, Louisiana The Awakening by Kate Chopin

Well, I haven't been here for awhile, but I finally have a new state to add. Alabama! Inside Out & Back Again. A little girls experience of leaving Saigon in the waneing days of the Vietnam War and at the age of ten she moves to the United States with her mother and three brothers.
I highly recommend this YA novel written in diary form.

Alaska, check. New Jersey, check.

Wow! after almost a year I have finally read a book in a state other than NY. Say hello to Utah!

I'm really enjoying this challenge, though I'm taking it pretty slow, too! I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts about Inside Out & Back Again - wonderful little book.

Arizona! = 19 states visited.

Thanks for stopping in to leave a message on my thread, Cindy! Yup, this challenge is a lot more difficult than I had originally thought. Surprising how many books I read set in England. It's fun, non the less. :0)

Waking up this old thread to update my map. #19 is Georgia The Heart is a Lonely Hunter

Lots more needed updates brings my total up to 26 states!

Maryland = 28
