Top 10 Tuesday — Bookish Inns

16 Apr

Happy Tuesday! Today I am again tweaking the TTT prompt. Surprise, surprise! 😉 Instead of listing characters I would like to vacation with, I am spotlighting real life and fictional inns featured in books. While some of the places I’ve traveled to in my reading leave a bit to be desired as destinations (ghosts, disappearances, murders), I have enjoyed my vicarious stays. There are a variety of genres, so you should be able to find a book that sparks your interest.

    Fun topic! I was trying to think of inns I had read about and the first thing that came to mind was that wedding planner series Nora Roberts has.

    I just about did books that feature hotel settings, but I decided to go a different route instead. It’s a fun twist. I need to check out some of these books (and inns)!

    Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

    Great twist this week, Beckie. I will have to keep this in mind for one of those freebie days.
