Hi Andy, I'll allow it since Europe is made up of countries and Bill Bryson is definitely all about travel!

Heist Society would work for all the countries outside the US. I've not read this book yet (it's on my TBR!) but it definitely sounds like a lot of travel is involved.

This is set in 1941 England during WWII. As far as I know they never go to the US."

Code Name Verity will work as well. :)

For option 5, that is International Travel. Early in March, I've read "Black Suits You / الأسود يليق بك" in which the events are taking place between Algeria, Syria, Lebanon, France and Austria (lots of travel, I know). I'm Egyptian, so that'll do I guess.

Does A Bright and Guilty Place: Murder, Corruption, and L.A.'s Scandalous Coming of Age work for option 2? L.A. is referring to Los Angeles.

Sure, LA is fine since it so clearly refers to Los Angeles.

Does a person riding a horse count as a mode of transportation?

[Suzanne]

Sure, horses will work!

For option 3--
Does this look like a train to you?
I think it's a train going out of the tunnel.

[Suzanne]

LOL, I kept looking at the gold tube and gems(?) thinking, huh, I don't see a train! But, eventually my eyes shifted beyond that. Yes, I definitely agree that's a train and train station in the background!
