Andrea Cox January - December 2026

America is a vast nation, and road trips are often a popular vacation choice.

Let's read books that feature road trips within America's states.

When you post your books, let us know where the characters traveled.

Rules:
* Books may be any genre and any length.
* Please share the finish date for each completed book.
* Please repost your completed challenge.

Andrea Cox Welcome, Carissa!


message 12: by Bonny (new)

Bonny Would this book count? It is a travel book, and the author travels from New York to DC, and to Chicago, and to Boston, and to Philadelphia, but he travels by train instead of by car.

message 13: by Andrea (new)

Andrea Cox Road trips are by car, truck, van, etc., so I think not on the train travel.


message 14: by Bonny (new)

Bonny Okay! I will only count books featuring motor vehicles then! Thanks for clarifying.
