And I'll quick...A bit of a one-stop reply here. And I'll quickly say--thanks to everyone for the comments!<br /><br />Shadow—Love books set in Texas, but not sure I could take the heat there. <br /><br />Katsrus—Thanks for coming by.<br /><br />Kim J—Happy to have you stop by.<br /><br />DVQ—is it okay if I shorten your name? (I hope so) I am not a fan of the beach for myself, but I do find it fun to read books set in exotic locations. Thanks!<br /><br />Amy—the BBB has been great! Glad to have you hop over from there. Scotland is a wonderful location—especially for historical. <br /><br />Yadkny—so an author can seduce you to go just about anywhere, anytime, so long as the story is great. I’d think we all agree with that, too. Thanks!<br /><br />Allyson—I enjoy the south as well. Any chance you’re a fan of Hart of Dixie? (I know, it’s a TV show, not a book, but I love it.)<br /><br />Rhonda—I love books set in Australia, and yes, a visit there would be pretty darn awesome. Maybe someday… Wishing success back at you when ILLUSION OF SAFETY releases this fall!<br /><br />Wendy—warm and sunny is a definite plus when you’re used to the cold. Though if I’m snuggled in my reading chair with a mug of tea or hot chocolate, I don’t mind a book with cold. So long as I’m warm.<br /><br />Denise—haven’t read many books set in San Fran that I can remember, but I have been there and it’s a cool city. <br /><br />BN100—New Orleans has that wonderful mystical quality that can really add to a book if the author uses it almost like a character. Great choice!<br /><br />Lara—met you at the BBB Facebook party! Thanks so much for coming by! Yeah, the Rockies are by far my favorite location, too. If money wasn’t an issue, I’d live in Colorado. I hope you are a safe distance from the fires that seem to be burning just about all over out there in the west. <br /><br />Tammy—your mother sounds like a very wise woman! WY and Montana are both states I would love to visit someday soon. Thanks so much for the compliments on the books and for commenting!<br /><br />Becky—good authors blend the setting into the book seamlessly—like a loved (or sometimes scary) secondary character. I agree with the settings you enjoy—mountains, ranches, Australian Outback… Thanks for stopping!<br /><br />BookAttict—yep, getting back to basics—that blurb has to catch the reader and then the book has to follow through on that promise. So glad you came by!<br /><br />Stacey Joy Netzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13908548379784017162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2693405761374302783.post-52337982975881550072012-08-18T16:47:42.843-05:002012-08-18T16:47:42.843-05:00The setting/location of a book is incidental to me...The setting/location of a book is incidental to me--initially it's about the cover art, blurb, and reviews from bloggers with similar taste in books...<br /><br />Thanks for the amazing giveaway!<br />elizabeth @ bookattict . com<br />GFC: BookAttict<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07544111436415588252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2693405761374302783.post-32093788591011537622012-08-17T23:46:43.035-05:002012-08-17T23:46:43.035-05:00I don't usually pay attention to the settings,...I don't usually pay attention to the settings, but I do read a lot of stories that are set in the mountains and deal with ranches or farms.

My mother says it's because God builds the love of the Rockies into your soul along with the love of the open sky and friendly people. :D <br />As for Scotland it is the one place i have always wanted to visit.<br /><br />tammy ramey<br />trvlagnt1t@yahoo.comwyndwhisperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04720377867271773798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2693405761374302783.post-21103283748808186312012-08-16T23:11:04.351-05:002012-08-16T23:11:04.351-05:00I live in the Rockies so anything written here is ...I live in the Rockies so anything written here is always a treat!
