09 - A book with a map

[Celine]

I LOVED reading Artemis by Andy Weir. It was such a fun book starring a young woman with a crude sense of humor, small amount of mystery and action.

American Dirt was a fantastic read!

Most of Maria V Snyder's books have maps! Winnie the Pooh (for a quicker / family read) and all of the Inheritance / Eragon series have maps.

I read Kyrgyzstan by David C. King. The maps are really helpful. I picked this up in response to something Ed Byrne said on Mock the Week lol. I am becoming more and more intrigued by Central Asia the more I read!

[Ashleigh]

I read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

The edition I read contained a map of Hogwarts grounds at the start!

[Harmke]

If you like it short and you can read in Dutch: Leon & Juliette by Annejet van der Zijl (Boekenweekgeschenk - gift during the National Book Week in the Netherlands).

I saw this on one of the lists. If I can confirm that it has a map, then I'll probably be reading it for the prompt."

My cousin who literally recommended this book to me a few hours ago did indeed confirm it has a map :) And excellent worldbuilding!

[Delia]

I'm a total sucker for maps!! I read The Palace of Lost Memories for this prompt. I didn't care for the characters much, but the map told a pretty good story in itself.

[Ana]

A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles

[Diana]

We Ride Upon Sticks and I Killed Zoe Spanos both have maps in the first couple of pages.

[Jessica]

For the prompt about reading a book with a map, I read “The Hobbit.”

[Rachelle]

The Betrothed. And The Luminous Dead

[Brandon]

Dragon: Hound of Honor has a map in the front. If you want a shorter book and like dogs or medieval France, then this might work for you.

It only had a solitary treasure map but I'm counting it. Riptide by Douglas Preston

[Lauren]

I imagine a lot of people will be reading high fantasy for this, but I read something a little different and LOVED it.


Horrorstor was a SUPER fun humerous, paranormal horror story. It's set in a fake ikea that has some weird happenings going on and follows a couple of staff members who decide to do a nightshift to work out what the cause is before corporate come and investigate. I loved this. Would highly reccommend, and it has TWO maps. Double points, right?

I was JUST coming to post the same thing. I picked it up from my library yesterday!

[Tamara]

I read "The Walk" by Richard Paul Evans.

I read The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. I didn’t realize it had a map since I listened to the audiobook. But, I checked out the ebook also to check out the illustrations and discovered a map on the first page!

That's awesome! I highly recommend The Phantom Tollbooth for readers of all ages. It is even more applicable to life in the time of COVID-19.

Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse works

[Virginia]

I read America's Sacred Sites for this prompt.


I'm surprised how many books I've read this year had maps in them. I'm currently reading Prisoners of War and recently read Oregon, My Oregon, Black Sun, and The Immortal Words, for a few examples.

[Melissa]

Thirteen Reasons Why has a map

[Anshita]

I read The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Chris Riddell. It has a map at the end.
