This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is “Top Ten Book Settings I’d Like to See More of.” Here’s my list:
- Hogwarts. What can I say? I’d love to visit Hogwarts again. I hope JK Rowling writes more books in this setting or allows others to write into her world.
- 1920s Prohibition era. I love gangster movies especially when they take place during the Prohibition. I think it’d be fun to read some books taking place during that time in the big cities, like Chicago and New York.
- WWII. I’ve been fascinated with the WWII era, especially anything dealing with the Holocaust, ever since I was a young child. I love all the courageous stories of the Jewish people and those that helped them fight the Nazi regime.
- 19th century steampunk. I love the 1800s especially when steampunk is involved. I think it’s fun to look at all the clockwork-type gizmos and steam-powered machinery.
- Tudor era. This time in history is immensely interesting to me–the scandals, survival, and the people in general.
- High Fantasy lands. I love made up lands. It doesn’t matter if it’s Middle Earth, Narnia, Bayern, or some other made up place; I love discovering new places!
- Space. I love sci-fi. And, I especially love it when it has nothing to do with earth or our galaxy. Just like with high fantasy, I love discovering new places and experiencing it through space travel.
- Europe. I love reading about Europe, past or present. There’s so much potential with those settings because of Europe’s rich history.
- Romanov-era Russia. I love the story of Anastasia and ones like it. I think it’s fun to explore that time and read about stories during the Russian revolution.
- 18th century Colonial era. I love the extravagance of that era–clothes, homes, food, etc. It’s just so much fun to read about and live vicariously through those stories.
Looks like I need to read more historical fiction. Anyway, what are some settings you’d like to see more of?

Great list. I’d also love to read stories set in 1920s, the tudors era, Romanov-era Russia and space as well.
Yay! I need to find some good ones. I love everything I’ve read in those eras. And, I think I have quite a few on my TBR list. I just need to look for them and read them.
Great picks! I would love to see all of those as well.
Yay!
I put steampunk and fantasy lands on my list too! Hogwarts is the standard against which all boarding schools are judged.
I’d love to read your list. Do you have a link?
I’d love to read more books set in the 18th century Colonial era!
Thanks for visiting my TTT list!

It would be fun to read books in that era, wouldn’t it? Thanks for stopping by!
I completely agree about Hogwarts, why oh why won’t she write more pleeeease!
I know, right?!
Excellent list! I escape to hogwarts often, love that place.
I have enjoyed the steampunk I have read and would like to read more. Great idea for a 1920′s era book.

I love that place too!
Hogwarts is the best!
I used to be obsessed with the Romanovs and Rasputin too. I would love to read some books set in that era.
I love HP and Hogwarts, but I actually like that there are only 7 books. I feel like it makes those books all the more precious. That said, if Rowling released more Hogwarts books, I would be all over them
Thanks for sharing.
I totally get what you’re saying. The books are very precious because there aren’t many of them, but I wouldn’t be opposed to more. And, that’s really cool that you loved the Romanovs and Rasputin so much! I don’t know a lot about them, but I love the story of Anastasia, so I’m sure I’d love anything around that era.
I’ve seen a lot of 1920′s on people’s lists. I’m thinking I need to read more books in that era.
I’ve only read one at this point–The Diviners. But, I love movies set in that era, so I’m sure I’d love books too.
