Around the World in Books

I have decided to see where I am traveling in the books I am reading! So this page will grow as I read (started 8/4/22). I will posting the states and international locations! If you read a great book set in a location I have not read, feel free to pass on your recommendations! Where do you want to go?

Some books will link to Goodreads instead of my blog, those are the books I read before I really started reviewing. This page is a work in progress, check back often for updates.
