Stacey wrote: "Emm,

Sorry for the confusion.

You noted my recent add as Area X, but the title of the book is Annihilation. The location should be noted as: Area X,Southern Reach.

The star appears on Key West..."

Oh! I'm sorry, Stacey. I confused myself. I thought you read "Area X" which is the entire trilogy in one book. I've changed it. Is that more what you had in mind for the star?

[Michelle]

Also, Katie, I went ahead and added you to Modern Romance. And I added your other books. Added yours too, Andrea.

[Stacey]

Emm, now it's perfect! Thanks so much :))

[Rachel]

My most recent reads:

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe - El Paso, Texas
Rebecca - Monte Carlo and Manderley (house in southern England)

I don't know if you're including books from other challenges, but in case you are:
The Witches - Bournemouth, UK and partly in Norway

Just a thought, and it's probably way too late to incorporate this, but I wonder if it would also make sense to collect when each book was set. Maybe a timeline, in addition to the map? I wouldn't have any idea how to do that though.

[Erica]

The Edible Woman
Toronto, Canada

H is for Hawk
Cambridge, England

Grey
Seattle, USA

Heart of Darkness
Congo River, Africa

The Girl with All the Gifts
Somewhere outside London, England

The Heart Goes Last

[Michelle]

Rachel, we're just doing the books for this challenge. Thanks for asking. I'll just take this opportunity to remind everyone of that.

Please only include your books for the 2016 ATY Challenge.

As you can see, this is a huge project with just the books from the ATY Challenge. It would be much too difficult to map everyone's books for every challenge. Since our group is the ATY group, we're just going to focus on that. :)

As for the years. that is may be something we can consider for next year. But I think you're right about it being difficult to do at this point. But it's a nice idea! :)

At work so I'll get to these when I'm able. Thanks guys!

Guys, I have a question!
I'm not from US or UK, so I don't know exactly what is "primary" or "secondary". I think "primary" is not the first place that is shown in the book, but the most important one.
Is it right?

[Angela]

Nefertiti

Amarna, Egypt

Secondary:
Thebes, Egypt

[Estelle]

Death is not the End
Kirkcaldy, Scotland

[Laura, Celestial Sphere Mod]

Stephanie, Emm will tell you when she adds your book :)

Babitix, Yes, it is the location that is most important or the location where most of the book takes places. For instance, if the character lives in one place but takes a vacation for a few chapter then the first location would be primary.

Hundraåringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann

I have trouble putting a primary location for this book since he traveled the world.
One part of the story is mainly in Sweden but still multiple locations in Sweden. I guess the story starts in Malmköping where he climbs out of the window.

[Ed]

Two Hussars

Tolstoy mentions the "Town of K..." in Russia...as the primary place..but much of the story also takes place in the nearby town of Morozovka, Russia.

The Book of Speculation
Long Island Sound
town of Napawsat

[Rachel]

Trying to collect settings like this really made me realize how few books explicitly say where they are set...either that, or I don't pay enough attention.

Why We Broke Up - United States, doesn't seem to give anything more specific
Attachments - Nebraska. I'm pretty sure it specified somewhere, but I can't find it now. I keeping wanting to say Lincoln, but I know it's not that

[Katie]

The Kiss of Deception
A fantasy set in the fictional Kingdom of Morrighan

[Michelle]

These will be up either before or after the football game tomorrow, guys! :D

[Michelle]

Rachel - I couldn't find a specific location for the book either. The best I can say is that he said he lived about 45 minutes from the state school and he later returns to Nebraska to attend college at University of Nebraska. Their main campus is in Lincoln, Nebraska so my best guess would be somewhere within a 30-40 mile radius of Lincoln, Nebraska. ;) But I just put it under Nebraska. It's already been added. I'll add your name to it when I get these up tomorrow.

[Pauline]

The Edge of Dark

Primary location : Micklegate, York YO1 6JG, England

Secondary location: London, England ... Specifically Mincing Lane EC3R 7AE

[Jody]

Fahrenheit 451

Ray Bradbury was apparently intentionally vague about the setting of this one - it could be Anytown USA, apparently.

[Adam]

Fool Moon

Chicago, Illinois, USA

[Michelle]

Working on it right now! :D

[Mariana]

Making Faces
Primary: This is a tricky one. The book is set in this little town called Hannah Lake, PA. USA. But I couldn't actually find it in the map. It was supposed to be like 100km from the flight crashing site on 9/11. Maybe is somewhere around Shanksville or Indian Lake. =/

Secondary: Iraq

Ana A - Your book was already on the map so I added you as a second submitter.

Babitix - Missoula is in Montana, so I was not sure if you wanted me to stick your primary star in Missoula or not. I took a guess and added it there.

Silvia - Added.

Mariana - Added.
