Bout of Books 14: Challenge #6 & Reading Updates

The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, August 17th and runs through Sunday, August 23rd in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 14 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

And here we are on day six of the readathon.  I swear, it's going by suuuuper fast!  I can't believe how fast it's flown by.  Today's challenge was quite nice and I enjoyed it a lot. :)

Hosted by Steph In Wonderland

For this challenge, come up with a list of the top 4-5 states/places you'd love to visit and find a book (you either read or want to read) that takes place in that state/place or a book by an author who lives or is from there.

There's only one place on this list that I have already been to but that doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be on this list. New Orleans has always had a place in my heart and the two times that I've been there were for medical purposes for my daughter and I never got to really experience it. So, now that that's out of the way, here's my list:

1. The Rainbow Singer by Simon Kerr (Ireland)
2. The Tales of Beetle The Bard by JK Rowling (England)
3. Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (Forks, Washington)
4. Marigny Street by Annie Rose Welch (New Orleans)
5. Wildefire by Karsten Knight (Author lives in Boston, Massachusetts)
