Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by the Broke and the Bookish. Today’s theme was:
Ten Places Books Have Made Me Want To Visit (whether fictional or real)
Most of the books I read are set in fictional places that you DO NOT want to visit, but here are a few with incredible ones I’d definitely like to see.
Fictional:
Cabeswater (The Raven Cycle books by Maggie Stiefvater)
Diagon Alley (Harry Potter series by JK Rowling) – and now I can (sort of) go! Hope to go to Orlando next year. 🙂
Mercy Falls (The Wolves of Mercy Falls series by Maggie Stiefvater)
Neverland (duh. Peter Pan by JM Barrie)
Gotham (Yeah, it’d be a little crazy, but Batman. And Robin. Lots and lots of authors)
Real:
Amazingly and fortunately and luckily, number one here is a place I’ve actually been: Scotland (The Inspector Rebus series by Ian Rankin)
Paris (several books, but mostly significantly Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins)
Pittsburg (The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chobsky) – I’ve actually been there, but it was for a baseball game. I want to ride under that bridge like Charlie, Sam, and Patrick do.
Alaska (several books, but most recently Let’s Get Lost by Adi Alsaid)
Japan (A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki)
What about you? Where have books made you want to go? Link me up to your TTT!
