USA Reading Roadtrip

Oh, yes.  Another book challenge.  But, y'all, I really do love myself a good book challenge.  Traveling around the 50 states of the USA through the stories of books set in each state?  What's not to love about this challenge?  The group on goodreads operates each calendar year.  That's all fine and good.  I'm not really giving myself an "end" date.  I'll take my trip leisurely.
