Ah sorry! Scrolled too fast and missed the whole last paragraph, how embarrassing 🤦🏻♀️I can’t seem to find exact locations mentioned, but maybe one of the local Alabama authors mentioned here has something set in the state. https://apls.libguides.com/c.php?g=1186134&p=8684851
Idaho - Beulah by Christi Nogle!
Was coming here to make this exact recommendation
Amazing thank you! It’s on kindle unlimited too!
Thank you! Looking this up! It sounds familiar, I think it was nominated for a Stoker, maybe?
It won Christi a Stoker for Debut Novel! And it is a fantastic read.
The Secret Skin by Wendy N. Wagner is set in Oregon, I think. Sawmill Gothic.
I have Kin by Kealan Patrick Burke on my list for Alabama, but haven’t read it yet!
Except I need the book to be written by a woman for this project

Sorry for the self-promo, but CORPORATE BODY by R.A. Busby is set in Las Vegas, Nevada!
Also YOU WILL SPEAK FOR THE
DEAD, which I set in a fictionalized version of the Vegas neighborhood I used to live in. :-)
Verity. Cynthia Lee. Southern Gothic horror.
Oregon- The Devil Crept In- Ania Ahlborn
Colorado - The Blood of Seven by... ME! hehehe!
Sunburn by Laura Lippman is a noir/thriller set in Delaware. It's been on my TBR list for a while but I haven't read it yet!
Idaho: Steph Nelson, The Vein and Sawtooth; Noelle W. Ihli, Ask for Andrea and The Thicket; and my own novel Beulah
Oregon: Wendy N. Wagner, Girl in the Creek (forthcoming February, probably available in arc soon)
I just picked up your book for Idaho! Thank you, perfect recommendations. Definitely going to request that Wendy Wagner one, I saw the cover! 👀
Thank you! Yes, I am really excited about Wendy's book and hope to read it early too!
It’s thriller, but The Bird’s Nest by Shirley Jackson could work for New York
Christa Carmen- Daughters of Block Island. Set in Rhode Island
Wait, I have Rhode Island covered. Plain, Bad, Heroines.
Furnace by Livia Llewellyn has stories based in Washington. (I think there is one based in Oregon, too.)
I recommend American Rapture by CJ Leede for Wisconsin.
Minnesota - Bones & All
