Gracie said, "A few more suggestions (ones I came up with immediately after hitting the Publish button on my last comment): MARYLAND - anything by Anne Tyler, whose books are so specifically set in Baltimore. For example, The Accidental Tourist.Macon Leary is a travel writer who hates both travel and anything out of the ordinary. He is grounded by loneliness and an unwillingness to compromise his creature comforts when he meets Muriel, a peculiar dog-obedience trainer who up-ends Macon’s insular world and thrusts him headlong into a remarkable engagement with life.

GREAT pick - my favorite Tyler book!
And I finished my Maryland read. It was a book called Two Brothers - One North, One South by David H. Jones. This book detailed Maryland's contribution, both Union and Confederate, to the American Civil War. Here is my review.
Thanks, Bonnie! =)
