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- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
