Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week. This week’s topic is Destination Titles, and the prompt is titles with name of places in them. These places can be real or fiction!
I’m going with real place names, and have found more than expected on my shelves!
Here is my selection of 10 destination titles:
- Moloka’i by Alan Brennert
- The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem by Sarit Yishai-Levi (review)
- My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan (review)
- South Pole Station by Ashley Shelby (review)
- The Paris Diversion by Chris Pavone (review)
- The Serpent of Venice by Christopher Moore (review)
- Letters from Skye by Jessica Brockmole (review)
- The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
- The Shambling Guide to New York City by Mur Lafferty (review)
- Denali‘s Howl by Andy Hall

Bookshelf Fantasies 
That’s a great theme for a post. Lovely to see all of the places that you’ve been in your reading.
Now if only I could get to them all in real life! 🙂
My Oxford year seems to be so underrated, barely no one talks about it it seems.

You’re right, and I don’t understand why more people have read it! It was such a good book.
Yay for Guernsey! 🙌 So many great destinations this week!
Such a fun theme!
Great choices! Letters from Skye, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and The Shambling Guide to New York are all on my TBR list. I like that you included some fantasy/sci-fi destinations in your list. So did I.
Fantasy and sci-fi are always wonderful escapes!
I loved #8 and have always wanted to read Lafferty’s Shambling Guide to New York. That Denali’s Howl looks awesome, too. And so does South Pole Station. So many books…so little time. Great TTT list! 😀
I haven’t actually read Denali’s Howl yet… but I’ve owned a copy for years, and I really do want to read it! I just never seem to be in the mood for non-fiction these days.
I’ve been to Scotland a couple of times, but I haven’t made it to the Isle of Skye yet. It’s on my travel bucket list. It looks so amazingly beautiful!
Happy TTT!

Ah, I’m jealous — I haven’t been to Scotland (yet!!!), but it’s very high on my list of where I’m dying to go!
Moloka’i is a good pick.
It’s one of two on my list that I haven’t actually read — but I picked up a copy many years ago, and still intend to read it!
The South Pole is a great answer.

I don’t know that I’d want to go there myself, but I do enjoy reading about it!
I didn’t do this prompt but it seemed like an easy one. You found a great selection!
Thanks! I do enjoy easy prompts 🙂
Great list! I love that all your destinations are real, mine are more fictional 🙂
