Playing rule-breaker again today! The first teaser I felt was perfect for today BUT THEN I saw one that was bookish and you know I can never pass up a bookish teaser/quote!
"With no land of the dead in Faerie, grave essence didn't reach for me. I couldn't feel bodies. I wasn't used to that." p 52*
"The Prince of Shadows and Secrets was a reader. You learn something new ever day." p 68*
*Quotes come from the ARC, therefore they and their page numbers are not final.

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
This week's topic is: Places Mentioned In Books That I’d Like to Visit (submitted by Georgia @justreadthemm)
*in no particular order
THE FANTASY PLACES THAT WILL BE A TOUCH HARD TO GET TO:
;)
10. HOGWARTS, HOGSMEADE, DIAGON ALLEY--pretty much everywhere in this book!
9. NEVERLAND--because if I don't have to grow up, I can stay tucked in a corner and read and read and read!
8. WONDERLAND--just for a visit! I always thought it would be a fun place to see...as my story with mirrors last week will tell you! LOL.
THE ONES I KNOW I'VE READ ABOUT BUT CAN'T REMEMBER SPECIFIC BOOKS FOR:
*i.e.: these are random books I found with good titles! ;)
7. WINCHESTER MANSION--there's a lot I would LOVE to see in California! Hoping to get out that way one of these days! The Winchester Mansion is at the top of the list! And I really don't think this book is about THAT Winchester Mansion, but the title was perfect for this one, so there you go! LOL.
6. SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS--while I do enjoy historical places, I really enjoy the ones with paranormal connections. I mean obviously! Lol. One day I hope to head to the other opposite coast and visit this place!
5. DISNEYLAND--my trip I was initially planning for next year has been waylaid a bit, my month of choice is a month when the Castle will still be under construction so I've got to rethink things. And oh yes, this is #1 on my California list with Winchester coming in at a close second, therefore it's at the "top" of the list! Lol.
THE PLACES I'VE READ ABOUT & WANT TO VISIT:
4. LONDON--so many amazing sites to see here...including Harry Potter related things!
3. SCOTLAND--I think this would be a beautiful country to visit!
2. IRELAND--naturally, I've got to go here and visit my family roots! LOL.
1. TORONTO--random, right? I chose this simply because it's in the country where Morgan lives! LOL! Plus I think it would be fun place to visit and perhaps beg for the rough draft of The Cursed Heir because my mind will NEVER be at ease without it! WHY RAZORBILL, WHY???

I love it! You've got a wonderful variety of real and not-so-real! My dad's people are from Scotland, so I've always wanted to visit there.
ReplyDeleteNeverland and Wonderland are both favorite places from my youth (along with Narnia), but I have been to many of the "real world" places you mentioned up there. Scotland is on my bucket list. I have my eye on a tour, that is out of my price range, but maybe someday.
ReplyDeleteNeverland! Good one. Wonderland is on my list as well. I would love to go to Salem as well - current time. I don't think I'd last too long during the witch burnings LOL

I totally agree with your comments on the Potterverse. There are so many exciting places there to see. I mentioned one of them in my post this week!

All of my yes to the first three! I can't believe I forgot to add Hogwarts to my list!
ReplyDeleteHa ha yes Hogwarts would be just a tad hard to get to! I've lived in both England and Scotland but haven't been to Ireland yet.

I want to visit Scotland too, the landscapes are absolutely breathtaking. It's been a goal of mine for years so I hope I can pull it off at some point.

Ooh I like those quotes! And Neverland would be fun. I also need to visit Ireland/Scotland/ basically the whole UK at some point. :)
ReplyDeleteI liked both excerpts and that cover. Wow!

I've been to Salem and it was a really interesting place to visit. And I'd definitely love to go to Ireland and Scotland someday. My husband is actually going to Dublin for his second time (for work) and I'm so jealous!!

I went to Salem a few years ago and it's incredibly atmospheric. :)
