June 2024 Monthly Question

[Robin P, Orbicular Mod]

What fictional city/country/world found in a book would you like to visit?

[John]

I have read several books set in Edinburgh, which I would like to visit.

[Robin P, Orbicular Mod]

Examples could range from Three Pines in the series by Louise Penny to Narnia.

Edinburgh isn’t fictional. Trust me I have been there

[Thomas]

Narnia. Or Hogsmaid. Possibly Avonlea but keep away from Mrs Barry

Especially the the Edinburgh in the The Library of the Dead.

[Dubhease]

Hogwarts, Narnia, The Shire, Rivendell, Wonderland, Pemberley, and Avonlea.

I think the Pye's were worst. Rachel had her heart in the right place.

[Kendra]

The Library on the Starless Sea

[Denise]

I would like to visit Wonderland (as in Alice in) and Neverland (Peter Pan)

[Turid]

I wouldn't mind living in the Shire for a bit 🌳🥰

[Thomas]

Dubhease Rachel is Mrs Lynn Mrs Barry is Diana’s mother. I agree about the Pyes

[Trish, Annular Mod]

Pern first, Middle Earth second.

[Ciara]

I would cut off my own arm to live in the Villa Villekulla. #homegoals

[Pam]

The world where Monk & Robot duology is set.

I don't think I'd want to go anywhere near Neverland. In the book, the death rate there is essentially 100% over a certain age. And I am well above that age.

Pern is an excellent choice. Xanth is a magical paradise (and any children born there get a magical power). I think I'd like to visit the world of The Culture if not only for the universal healthcare.

[Lindsay]

The cemetery of forgotten books

Excellent point. But I just want to visit, not stay.

[Shannon SA]

My daughter's choice: Gotham City! Mine, the Shire :)

[Marie]

Narnia would be wonderful to visit, I think. The Shire would be lovely. I think Asimov's Foundation would be an interesting place to visit, too.

[Katherine]

I want to teach at Hogwarts (or just go there as a student.)

[Odette]

Piranesi's house in Piranesi. It sounds a wonderful world with endless rooms and halls to explore, many statues, and rising and falling tides. Then there is the mystery to solve of why he is there.

[Kayleigh]

The Discworld, though I might avoid Ankh-Morpork.

My Hogwarts letter never arrived I like to believe the muggle born records were destroyed in the war

I haven't read this book, but it is now on my way-too-long TBR list!

[Böcker och kaffe med mjölk]

I wouldn't mind visiting Velaris in Court of Night, nor the other Courts in the land of Prythian.

[Ashley]

Hogwarts. I always wanted to go there ever since seeing the movies and now that I am reading the books the want has grown.

[Tracy]

The circus at the end of The Night Circus

Maybe on the ship of The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet, just to hang out with the crew. Oh, and maybe to experience a worm hole (I think that's the term that was used).
