Secrets and Lies | A book set in a sleepy small town
Bonfire, Krysten Ritter
I felt as if I was dropped head-first into Barrens, Indiana, and experiencing everything in this small town with the main character.
—
Salt and Sand | A book with a beachside community
The Runaway: A Maryellen Mystery, Alison Hart
Maryellen’s world is set in Daytona Beach, Florida.
—
Here There Be Dragons | A book with a voyage on the high seas
The Woman in Cabin 10, Ruth Ware
This book is primarily set on an inaugural voyage, so this one definitely qualifies.
—
Tread Lightly | A book set down in a murky river or a jungle
Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad
I was assigned to read this in my senior year of high school. This was one book that creeped me out for a good while, long after I finished reading it.
—
Frozen Wastes | A book with a frostbitten atmosphere
Christmas After All: The Great Depression Diary of Minnie Swift, Indianapolis, Indiana, 1932, Kathryn Lasky
Reading the fictional account of Minnie and her family during The Great Depression in 1932 made me shiver, in more ways than one.
—
The Boonies | A book with rough or isolated terrain
The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins
District 12 is definitely rough and isolated. So are many other places in Panem.
—
Hinterlands and Cowboys | A book with a Western-esque setting
Brokeback Mountain, Annie Proulx
Set in the Wyoming mountains, this is one of a handful of books I think of when I imagine the American West.
—
Look Lively | A book across sweeping desert sands
Under a Painted Sky, Stacey Lee
I haven’t read this book, but I really want to.
—
Wild and Untamed | A book set in the heart of the woods
Bridge to Terabithia, Katherine Paterson
If you haven’t read this book, it’s a good one. It’s an emotional coming-of-age story, but this book made my imagination run wild. I turned the city park behind my house into my own Terabithia for years afterward, creating stories in my notebooks.

Wildest Dreams | A whimsical book shrouded in magic
Fallible Justice, Laura Laakso
I received this book as an ARC (My first-ever ARC!) from the publisher last year. This book is a fresh perspective on magic, the paranormal, and mystery. I’m so excited this book is part of a paranormal investigation series!

Thank you! This was fun. You’re welcome!
!!! Thanks for the tag (I have so much catching up to do, gah!)
You’re welcome! I need to go back through my hundreds of emails from WordPress to see if I missed a tag or two.
Thanks for doing the tag! I never thought to use The Hunger Games!
You’re welcome! That’s the first book that came to mind, so I went with it. I want to re-read the trilogy later this year.
Thank you for the tag! Bridge to Terabithia was such a good book and I think it might have been the first book to ever just totally wreck me. My heart still hurts thinking about it!
You’re welcome! I hear you – I wasn’t prepared for all of that when I first read it!
Wow … late reply on my part! Thank you for tagging me, love! Bridge to Terabithia … it still pulls on my heartstrings to this day …
Nice one with The Hunger Games! I didn’t even think of that!
No worries! You’re welcome!
