Okay, I am confused. You add the books? or do we? I added one to Ireland. Oops! Sorry if I did it wrong.Maybe you could also add a section for future places. ie.. Hunger Games. North America Future Location of what is now the Appalachian Mountains (District 12) and the Rocky Mountains (The Capital)
Mod
where is the setting, District 12?
I know the Appalachian Mountains is the whole of the east coast. I must be Pennsylvania to Virgina since they have the coal mines.This is what Wikipedia says... "District 12 is located in the coal-rich region "Appalachia," referring to the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States."
That is the best I can do for you.

Since it is specific to that book trilogy, maybe you might want just a general US label for books that take place in unspecified states in the US.
That would make more sense Diane.

Added. :)
Feel free to add your books directly to the bookshelf in the future. If the country doesn't exist, just add it as a new shelf. The states should all be there, they just start with USA-name.
i tried adding a new shelf and it didn't like me :(
Mod
That's not good. What message did it give you?
i don't even have an add-shelf button when i look at the list of the group shelves - normally or in the edit shelves view
I added a bunch of shelves without any issues. Have you tried again? Sometimes it acts a bit funky.
Oh and I have a question about a shelf...I added a shelf for 'Tahiti' but that's the largest island in the French Polynesia. Should I leave it as Tahiti because it's better known or change it to FP?
Mod
Dee - try this and see if it works.
Enter book title - click Add to Group, click Choose Shelves, Scroll to bottom of box and enter name in space where it says New Shelf and click Save, then scroll up to put a check mark in that new shelves box and click Save Group Book.
Mod
That's a good question. I personally wouldn't have known to look for Tahiti under the French Polynesia. My thought would be to leave as is unless we start getting other options in the French Polynesia and then possibly combine. What does everyone else think?
Makes sense, Diane. Also in the book, they talk about 'Tahiti' not FP. :)
ok, that works...i added a book to the newly made peru shelf
Mod
Yay, I'm so glad it is working!
Didn't have argentina so I found and added a few.
I added the country Malta and the book
.
Mod
Updated some of the harder to find American states. Will add more later.
Mod
Checked out books posted in NBRC group "Vacation Destination Challenge" and added a bunch of books. ☺
