The YA Dystopian Book Club discussion

In one of my groups they have this thing called Where in the the World, where they ask members where they live, then mark that on google maps. I thought this was a wonderful idea so why not do it for this group.

Post here to tell us where you live. Just post city and country (and state if you live in the US)

(The group I was refering to is called 2013 Reading Challenge and is wonderful for reading challenges if you want to join)

I live in Bangor, UK

Cool, I might do that sometime in summer :)
I've added you to the map

Quakertown, Pennsylvania...USA

Added you, Marni. Quakertown is an interesting name for a place. Do you get a lot of earthquakes there or something?

No earthquakes. We get the name from the Quakers, who originally settled here. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaker...

I'm originally from St Louis, MO. We settled here after we were both off active duty. My husband and I were in the military together at an airbase close by. He eventually retired from the Air Force Reserves. When we met we were both in the Marines.

Woah, Marni, you must have had an interesting life so far!

Ah okay, that makes sense.

Interesting but also a bit lonely at times. Miss my family. I grew up where we would all go to grandma's every weekend. We're about 900+ miles from our families.

Marni, ah yeah, that's a bit sad. I'm lucky to live just an hour away from my grandparents on both sides.

Pennsylvania woot woot! My home state!

Currently I'm travelling the world for two years while I write so I don't have a home lol! We'll return to Sydney for a few months at the end of the trip and then move to Hawaii!

Loving all the pics Adele and you are posting on FB!

RAF Lakenheath, UK

Isn't this group based in the UK. There are only two people on the map from the UK

It's based in the UK because I founded it and I live in the UK so that's the location it used automatically.

Oh, that makes sense.

I live in Birmingham, UK. :)

This is awesome Lilac! I live in London, UK :)

Awesome Abbie- I was born there :D And I visit London like every year!
But I live in plain old Brookfield, Wisconsin in the US...

I'm from Diamond Bar, CA but I attend school in Huntingdon, PA. Whichever location you deem most interesting is the one you can put for me I guess!

Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Central America

Lenin, I've been trying to pronounce the name for the past 10 minutes now, hahaha. :)

Hahaha Kayla!

I live in boring old Cincinnati Ohio, U.S.

Lauren, definitely not boring for someone who doesn't live in the States!
