That works, it is listed in the book details. 😊

Yay!!

Maura (mauralin13) | 250 comments A book I really, desperately want to read is tagged "New England". Any chance that would count?

Annette (nettyb23) | 238 comments Does this book work? There is no location in the details but it mentions Nantucket in the précis.

28 Summers by Elin Hilderbrand

message 256: by Karen ♐ (new)

Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 2041 comments Unblocked - Episode Five (Timber Towers, #5) by Marni Mann - This is book 5 in the set. Book 1 lists the state as Massachusetts and every other book has been there but book 5's MP doesn't state anything about the location. I believe it still is in Massacusetts as I have started the book. Is this okay?

Maybe, it needs to be in a coastal state though so I would need something more than New England.

Yes, that works.

Maybe, you can send me the book. I need context to determine - fluffy doesn't necessarily work.

I need to be able to verify that this book is set in Massachusetts, earlier books in a series are not enough. I would need something specific about this book.

As far as I can tell, there isn't anything in the precis or tags to say anything else. It's a spinoff of a series I've read and set in the same town, which is coastal, but nothing to prove it. So I guess that's a no go? I'll just have to read it for a different task then :-)

Use < s > at the beginning and < /s > at the end - without the spaces. 😊

message 265: by Grace (new)

Grace | 1732 comments This may be a silly question, but if it's tagged/shelved with one of the states would that work as a qualification? For example, I have a book tagged "location-Florida".

Yes, I will allow tags. They need to be specific to the qualifying state though, in other words not something like 'New England states' or 'Southern states'.

'all the feels' would work, but 'swoon-worthy' does not necessarily fit.

Not necessarily, I would need something more specific. The Appalachian Trail crosses many states, some that qualify and some don't.

No, Inspirational is a genre. Hopefully there is some other tag that would work.

I would need a way to verify that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Nayara (nayalink) | 630 comments Kat, would you acept this description on the precis as a prove that the MC is a law enforcer (in this book tgey are not called cops, but another name):

"When a lethal drug targeting paranormal citizens is unleashed on the streets of Atlanta, Hadley hits the clubs to pin down the dealer."

That description isn't enough, it could be something like a vigilante. If you want to send me the book I can look to see if I can find something there would verify law enforcement.

Fran | 12278 comments Hi Kat!

If the precis states that the book is set in the Berkshires, will that work? I know it's a mountain range, but it's located almost exclusively in Mass. and a bit in NY.

Skinny Dipping Dare. The whole camp firefly falls series is set at a campsite in the Berkshires. Another book in the series, Crushing on Cooper has a 'Massachusetts' tag.

Thanks!

*edit- I found a New York tag for Skinny Dipping Dare

This is the book Change of Heart. On the precis of first one of the series it's cleares that she is working in a "case" but I don't know if the precis of another book would be ok.

I don't see anything that would work for this book. ☹️ No, the precis of another book in a series does not work in this challenge - the book needs to qualify on its own. And working a case isn't necessarily law enforcement anyway. 🤷🏻‍♀️

No, those do not imply heartwarming - they could be angsty or depressing.
