Top Ten Tuesday: Book Settings I Would Love to Visit

Top Ten Tuesday is weekly book blog meme hosted by the lovely girls over at The Broke and the Bookish.

This week's Top Ten Tuesday theme is: "bookish settings we'd love to visit."

Alright, so for this one I'm leaning heavily on the "visit" part. People usually always ask, "what book setting would you want to live in?" and usually that answer is really hard to come up with because so many fantasy/etc. stories have worlds that I'm just not so sure I'd like to live in. With "visit," I can just go, get  glimpse, and leave, so it opens up the door to so many more options! (Also, just a note: I think it's already established that I would love to live in Middle Earth and visit Hogwarts, so I'm not including those in this list.) 

Wonderland

from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (and Heartless by Marissa Meyer)

Who wouldn't want to spend a day or two in this crazy, wonderful, insane land? But... probably only a day or two.
Heartless: Review

Chromatacia

from Shades of Grey by Jasper Fforde

I would love to visit this weird somewhat-dystopian colorless world. Each person has a unique color perception that lets them see a certain amount of color. I will not, under any circumstance, give up my return ticket, though. I have learned from the mistakes of those made in this book. 

Caverna

from A Face Like Glass by Frances Hardinge

This underground world of people wearing masks would be a very magical place to visit. I definitely don't think it's somewhere that I would want to stay, but until then 

Review

Grishaverse

from Six of Crows/Crooked Kingdom and the Shadow and Bone trilogy by Leigh Bardugo

I love this world and think it'd be so interesting to see how the magic and the land are in person. It might be too cold for me, though.
Crooked Kingdom: Review

Neverland

from Peter Pan by J.M. Barry
A world where you never have to grow up... it might be nice to not have any adult responsibilities for a while.

The Land of Stories

from The Land of Stories by Chris Colfer

This land has all the classic fairy tales in one huge world and I just think it'd be amazing to explore. 

Weep

from Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor

I would love to see this mysterious, somewhat magical city with my own eyes. Everything in this book is described with such detail and beauty that it makes me so intrigued. 

Fairyland

from The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland With a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne Valente

I would have no idea what to expect from a visit to Fairyland, but I know it would be one exciting adventures. 

Anywhere in the Cosmere

from The Stormlight Arhive by Brandon Sanderson (among others)

This world is insane, and I have nothing much else to say. 

Red/Grey/White/(Maybe Black?) London

from the Shades of Magic series by V.E. Schwab
All the different London would be so weird and exciting at the same time. 

A Darker Shade of Magic: Review
A Gathering of Shadows: Review
