My city, like many, is still in lockdown in order to bring down the number of COVID-19 patients in hospitals. Vaccines are being shipped out, but aren't trickling down as fast as I think we all had hoped. I know I am finding lockdown during the coldest and darkest part of the year difficult, and I am sure many of you are as well.

As I daydream of travel, and often play the "where-will-you-go-when-you-can-travel" game with friends and family by text message, I started to think about all the engrossing novels I have read with rich, descriptive settings—and this blog post idea was born.


Here is a list of books to read when you want to experience a new place, but travel isn't an option. From murder mystery to satire, nonfiction to paranormal fantasy; I've hyperlinked the titles below so you can plan your next "trip"!
