Friend who can't stop raving about Boomtown. It's outside of what she normally reads (mystery, contemporary, romance) and I'd love to find something similar. I think she liked that it was about a place and was a mix of informative, funny, moving, and warm. Looking specifically for non-fiction.

This is Chance! is about a city in rural Alaska that rallied after a devastating earthquake. Feels like a similar vibe?

ItтАЩs on the older side but maybe The Devil in the White City by Erik Larsen definitely about a place and very informative. However, not funny or warm.
