[Michelle]

MJ, Laura, Stacey, Rachel, Kelly, Debra, Estelle, Adam, Amy, Kathy, Jennifer, Sophie, Francesca, Michelle, and Amanda.

I added those of you were secondary submitters to the map markers. :)

I also added my books and included myself on the entry for Alice in Wonderland. They were:

Ten Thousand Skies Above You (Main: San Francisco, CA / Secondary: New York City, NY; Paris, France)

Strings Attached (New York City, NY)

The Royal We (Oxford and London, mostly.)

Rachel - For Lost Cove... I stuck it near San Francisco because that's where the author resides and in an interview for the book she said she thinks N. California is "mythical" so, I assume, the story would be set somewhere around there.

For Where They Found Her, I picked some place called Ridgedale Gardens in Madison, NJ.

J - I used the 2nd map and tried to imitate the markers for Hyde House and Jekyll House. Hope that works!

Debra - Hmm... fictional coastal town. Possibly near Portland, ME. I stuck it in Kittery, ME. I stuck Winn-Dixie in Gainesville, FL because a) my research suggests it is near there and b) there are a whole lot of Winn-Dixie's there. ;D

Adam - Academy City, Japan doesn't seem to be a real place... I just picked one? I couldn't find any info. If you know anything else about where it should be and want me to change it then let me know.

[Adam]

Academy City is fictional in the Kanto area of Japan. Around Tokyo should do.

[Stacey]

The map looks amazing, Emm! I wish I could put it on my wall!

One thing - sorry to be a pain - can you also add Vienna, Austria for All the Old Knives? Thanks again.

[Michelle]

Okay, Adam! I moved it over thataway. :)

It's no problem at all, Stacey! Sorry that I completely flaked on that secondary location. I added it now! Thanks!
