Okay, let's see what are the top 10 places I want to visit because I read about them in a book, and if I can remember exactly which books made me interested.
1. Ireland
Hmm, can't remember exactly which books, but I know there were some!
2. Forks, Washington
3. Scotland
Many books, all of the On Dublin Street series by Samantha Young. The Harry Potter castle is actually in Scotland as well.
4. England
So many books take place in England. A lot of them by Amy Daws. Of course, the Harry Potter series.
5. New York City
6. New Orleans
Another one I've already gotten the chance to visit. And because of books like the Arcana Chronicles by Kresley Cole or the Wicked saga by Jennifer Lynn Armentrout, I totally wanted to go.
7. Mexico
I've always been interested in old ruins from ancient civilizations, and after the book The Ruins by Scott Smith, Mexico became high on my list. I made that come true about 10 years or so ago, when I visited the ruins in Tulum. My first, and so far only, time out of the US.
8. Egypt
Egypt is one that is from many, many books, among other things. But a few that I can remember for sure are the Time Travelers series by Caroline B. Cooney, the Blossom Culp series by Richard Peck, as well as newer books like Reawakened by Colleen Houck.
9. Germany, Amsterdam
I have wanted to see the house, attic really, that Anne Frank and her family had to hide out in. I also feel like I want to visit a concentration camp, and pay my respects to those whose lives were lost in the holocaust.
10. Australia
I think the first time I really thought I wanted to go was after reading Pride of the Peacock by Victoria Holt.
So, have you been to any of these places? Are you from one of them? What are some locations you want to visit after reading a book that took place in that setting?
