I was drinking a martini on the back deck last night, scrolling through email on my phone, when a subject line from Book Riot caught my eye: “Books Around America 🇱🇷 The Best Books Set In Every State.” I thought they might share one of the existing resources I’ve listed here, like the Business Insider list or the one from Brooklyn Magazine, as I think Book Riot might be where I originally found those.
But they didn’t — they assembled an original list! Susie Dumond put together a list that is rich in author diversity and that includes multiple books from each state: Books Around America: The Best Books Set In Every State.
This is my new favorite resource. Book Riot is attentive to diversity, and that’s one of the things I love so much about them. I’m thrilled to be able to look to this list as I navigate New Hampshire through to the end in Wyoming.
