LOL. I was so going to make a list too, but you got it handled ;) I'll just add any I noticed you missed.

How did you go about making it? Did you go to a website or did you do this yourself?

Scary enough, I went through my YA books on GR. Many of them have a setting listed, and those that didn't list one but I knew, I added! Now that's something I try to always check under the GR listing for a book. Nice to have that info right up front.

But there's also a couple of websites that are helpful.
