Part I: The Mini-Activity
I actually found this little activity thanks to another blogger from a different reading challenge, so thank you nomadreader.
So where in the world have you read the past few days?
Follow these steps to participate:
1. Go to this link (you'll need a Google account)
- Zoom in to find the location you want.
- Hit edit (it's at the top right corner to the left of the map)
- You'll now have the ability to add a pin mark to the map. To locate the pin mark, look at the top left hand corner of the map. It should be the middle button.
- Enter the location(s) of where your books took place! Be sure to include the author's name & the title of the book and your blog name & address.
- Click OK to add your pin to the list.
- Click DONE in the left sidebar.
- Check out all the other locations.
So what's there to win?

Great idea Tori, the only thing that I'm a bit confused about is the location we have to pin is where WE reside or where the stories take place (I went with the 2nd).
ReplyDeletePlaced my pins :-)

I posted my pins! This is such a cool idea!
ReplyDeleteI left my pin, but did not say that Clockwork Angel takes place in London. Oops!
ReplyDeletehderaps@mbrsd.org
I did it but for some reason, it said my comment was posted by Tori (instead of Book Soulmates).
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, I'm reading Wicked Intentions by Elizabeth Hoyt. It takes place in St. Giles in London's east end.

ReplyDeleteI loved this idea. It's very different and fun to see (on a map) where the different stories take place.
Thank,

So seriously technologically challenges today. Not sure if I did it right or if the pin was added in the right place.

Love this idea. Hope I did it right :)
ReplyDeleteApparently I'm not smart enough to do this lol. I would have added Collingsworth, TX, the town where the Harlequin online read "A Daddy For Christmas" by Laura Bradford took place.
