Welcome to another TTT! For those who celebrated, I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving! As is always the case, as soon as Thanksgiving was over it was time for Christmas! I spent the entire weekend decorating my house for Christmas, and it’s all cozy and beautiful now. I love this time of the year!
Anyway, on to this week’s prompt: Books Set In X. Pick any setting and share books that are all set there. This could be a specific continent or country, a state, outer space, underwater, on a ship or boat, at the beach, etc. I decided to embrace my current obsession with romantic fantasy novels and go with books set in imaginary worlds. Most of these worlds are a little scary or dangerous (or are just places I’d never want to live) so I’m not necessarily saying I’d want to jump into the pages and live there, I just like reading stories that take place, well, not here. lol. I’m excited to see what direction you took this prompt in this week!
1. Fourth Wing and Iron Flameby Rebecca Yarros
2. Ledge by Stacey McEwan
3. The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen
4. The Winter King by C.L. Wilson
5. A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
6. Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
7. The Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson
8. The Crown’s Game by Evelyn Skye
9. Hunted by Meagan Spooner
10. A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer
Do you have any fantasy novels (preferably with romance) that you recommend?
I’d love more books to add to my to-read list!
I recognize several of these. I don’t think I read them, but did own some of them at one time. I hope you enjoyed any you read. :)
The Fourth Wing is on my TBR. I don’t often read Fantasy or Sci-Fi but when I do I usually enjoy it.
I love the world of ACOTAR!
Our tree is up so far 🤣 but with 2 young sons (5 years old and 4 months old) we shall see how long it lasts…
Have a great week!
There are actually several I’ve read this time!

Oooh fun topic! I’ll have to do this one next time around! I’ve read most of these too! The Bridge Kingdom is still in my TBR though! Great picks!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

I’m not much of a fantasy reader, so I haven’t read any of these. I did buy a copy of FOURTH WING, though, since everyone’s talking about it and I was experiencing serious FOMO! I haven’t read it yet, though.
Happy TTT!

I don’t read a lot of fantasy and have only read one of these, Hunted. I went rogue today as I had done settings in books before.
Oh it seems that I have to read Fourth Wing. I feel so curious and I like this kind of fantasy.
This is a great take on today’s prompt. I am not a fantasy reader, but there are a lot of worlds to disappear to, LOL!
If you’ve not read the Chronicles of Ixia by Maria V Snyder you should give them a try!
Great list! I went with imaginary worlds today too, but I focused on science fiction ones instead of fantasy.
Great topic choice, I’ve also read and loved ACOMAF, Fourth Wing and The Bridge Kingdom! :)
Have you read Poison Study or Kill the Queen?
Any of the Dragons of Pern novels by Anne McCaffrey. They’re old school fantasy/romance, but I think they still hold up today. 😀
Great topic! It is definitely safer to visit some of these places through a book! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
