Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish back in June 2010. It is currently hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and, as is stated on the blog, it was “born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.”
Hello, reader!
Top Ten Tuesday is upon us! This week’s theme is a super fun one. We’re talking about books that can transport you to a different place, all from the comfort of your favorite reading spot! I love a book where the setting is almost as much of a character as any of the humans and books where the author really pulls us into the world so it feels like you’re there. The books I’ve picked out are all ones where I found myself transported to the setting right alongside the characters!
Now, let’s get to it 😁
