Top Ten Books Set In Places I’d Love to Visit

Posted August 1, 2022 by Jana in Top Ten Tuesday / 19 Comments

Welcome to another TTT! This week’s topic features books set in places I’d love to visit. I love traveling so much, and I frequently choose books because of where they take place. It was hard to narrow this list down to just ten picks!

1. Next Year In Havana by Chanel Cleeton – Havana, Cuba
I’ve always wanted to visit Cuba. It’s a place that seems frozen in time, and it sounds beautiful.

2. Well Met series by Jen DeLuca – A Renaissance Faire
This series takes place at so many faires and they sound like so much fun!

3. The Gem Thief by Sian Ann Bessey – Santorini, Greece
I’d LOVE to explore Santorini!

4. Take Me Back by Meghan March – A fancy, isolated island paradise near Belize
I’ve been to Belize and oh my gosh, the heat and humidity nearly drained the life from me. But this book takes place on a breezy island that’s private, quiet, and beautiful.

5. Snowflakes at the Little Christmas Tree Farm by Jaimie Admans – Christmas tree farm in Scotland
This farm sounds magical and beautiful, and has a hunky sweetheart of a man next door.

6. The Tourist Attraction by Sarah Morgenthaler – Moose Springs, Alaska
I love Alaska and I bet the Northern Lights are seen here often!

7. Christmas at Frozen Falls by Kiley Dunbar – Finnish Lapland
This book takes place at a snowy resort in Lapland where people go to see the Northern Lights. There’s cabins with Christmas trees and ornaments you can use to decorate, a reindeer farm, and a husky dog nursery!

8. Love & Luck by Jenna Evans Welch – Irish countryside
There are castles and historic sites and there’s so much pretty scenery! Plus, the author writes really great scenery descriptions.

9. A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas – The Night Court
I LOVED The Night Court and the secret, beautiful city of Velaris. The setting was just so pretty and magical. I also loved the people there, and all the new characters I got to meet. Plus, Rhys…

10. The Conspiracy of Us by Maggie Hall – Istanbul, Turkey
I’ve wanted to visit forEVER!

  1. I want to visit so many places on your list! I am currently on holiday in Wales where the scenery is beautiful – it’s just sometimes hard to see through the rain 😂 still as someone from England who has been constantly complaining about the heat I am loving this weather 😂

  2. Great list of real and fictional bookish places you’d like to visit. I also have Velaris on my list, but I chose ACOSF because I’m fascinated by Nesta’s House of Wind and Library.
    Can’t wait to read everyone’s bookish travel destinations.

    Have a great week 🏝

  3. I went on a 10-day tour of Turkey (It included Istanbul) and I highly recommend it. I lived in Greece for almost 2 years but did not get to Santorini (it’s expensive!), but toured a lot of other areas. I hope you are able to visit some of these places someday!

  4. I am always interested in lots of places and since I have listed all my favourites last year, I have put together a few books from the Middle East this time.

    I’ve been to a few of the places you listed and my favourite is Ireland. Beautiful country, lovely people.

  5. Thanks for hosting! I haven’t done a top ten tuesday since before you took it over and I’m so excited to be back! Santorini is on my list too and I forgot to put the Northern lights in my list. I am going to have to add some of these to my TBR.

  6. You have some great locations here, Jana. I also have Lapland on my list for the same reasons. I have Greece, Scotland (the Highlands) and Irish coast, so some similarities.
