If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

I'd follow Jodi Foster to wherever it is she goes in CONTACT, by Carl Sagan. I saw the movie before I read the book, and I always picture Eleanor Arroway, the protagonist, as Jodi Foster. This heroine who refuses to take no for an answer, who fights the establishment and wins, who makes first contact with intelligent life, will always be one of my favorite characters in fiction.
And, harkening back to my first literary love, I'd follow Lucy through the wardrobe door into Narnia. The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe utterly enthralled me when I was a young reader. C.S. Lewis's extravagant, rich world-building was so magical, Narnia became a frequent landscape in my dreams.

Ms. Richmond, I am so lucky to have received an ARC of the Marriage Pact. I really enjoyed it. I am curious to know about some of your favorite books that have been written in the last 10 years that deal with ordinary people being put in less than ideal situations (i.e., abduction) ? Books on topics that you like to write! I'd love to know a few of your favorites! Thanks!
