Wow, thanks, I had no idea some of these took place in Iowa! I am going to finally read Bridges of Madison County, even though I doubt I will like it. I was a middle schooler in Des Moines when the movie came out (never saw that either) and it was such a big deal at the time, I feel like I should at least know the story.
I did some more searching and found a mystery series that takes place in Iowa. I think it's on the Iowa list, but I'll put it here anyway.The author is Donald Harstad. The series starts with
Eleven Days.For YA I found Red by Allison Cherry. I couldn't find it here so I went to amazon.

Here is a photography book:
The Oxford Project
Some of the photos from the Oxford Project were hanging in the University Hospital at one point (I work there). They are very cool! I may need to check that one out! Thank you for the recommendations.
You're welcome. It's fun for me to try and track down Iowa books. There don't seem to be too many, but I'm going to keep looking.
I got the Oxford Project from the library yesterday afternoon and I already finished it. Such a fascinating book! Definitely a great pick for the book that takes place in Iowa. Thanks again for the suggestion.
