Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Bookish Locations



Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @thatartsyreadergirl. This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Each week, Jana will post a prompt, and we readers will write our list. We also have the option to do our own thing. This week, our topic is  favorite bookish locations. As you can see, I went to places I want to visit, places I enjoy, or fantasy locations I enjoy. Enjoy!

1- New York City

I’ve read several books set in New York City and I love how the authors use the city to tell the story.

2- London

I’ve read A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and tomorrow by Laura Taylor Namey and One Day in December by Josie Silver. I loved seeing London through the eyes of the characters. 

3- Paris

I’ve never been to Paris, but I want to go. I’ve read Enchantée (All that Glitters is the new title) by Gita Trelease and Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. I loved seeing and exploring Paris in these books. 

4- The Night Court from A Court of Thorns and Roses series

While there are other courts in this series, I would want to visit this one. I just love the mood of this court and the characters that live there.

5- The Night Circus from The Night Circus

 

I feel like everyone who has read this book will put this location on their list. I loved the description of the circus and I would want to visit it.

6- Miami

 

I’ve never been to Miami, but I want to visit it. A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow also had Miami as a location and I just loved it. I’ve also read books by Chanel Cleeton set in Miami for some parts of the novel.

7- Cuba

 

This is where the Chanel Cleeton books come into play more. I’ve never been, but I loved this setting and to want to visit it one day.

8- New Jersey

I’m from here, I grew up here, and I still live here. While it might not be as close to New York City as I would like, I still love my state. My favorite books set in New Jersey are The Chance to Fly by Ali Stroker and Stacy Davidowitz and Love In English by Maria E. Andreu.

9- Ravka from The Grisha Verse

I loved the setting of Ravka in The Grisha Verse. I would want to visit that country and then some of the smaller locations throughout the series.

10- Camp Half-Blood

I really love the Percy Jackson series and I would love to visit Camp Half-Blood.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...
