I love a good book I can fall into.
Sometimes I wish I could literally fall into a book and experience the lives of the characters. Here are ten books that are like that for me.
Do you have any books you’d like to dive right into?

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

Gothic romance on the windswept moors? Yes please.

In reality, toxic relationship in a damp and drafty house, I realize, still would be interested in a visit.

Neon Gods (Dark Olympus #1) by Katee Robert

Glittering city on one side of the river, seemingly run-down city on the other. Not going to lie – I’d be drawn to the underworld.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Country estate with cute soldiers and rich men to interact with. Oh, you’re heartbroken – go stay with your cousins for a couple months. Feeling poorly – go tour the lake district.

Fawkes by Nadine Brandes

It’s 17^th Century London, with color magic.

Soulless (Parasol Protectorate #1) by Gail Carriger

Steampunk Victorian London with vampires and werewolves.

(SK Note: I only recommend the first book and number 5 – the middle three are a slog)

Glasswrights Series by Mindy Klasky

Morenia is a kingdom with a caste-based society based on your trade/your guild. It’s a fun read, none the less.

Snowspelled (The Harwood Spellbook #1) by Stephanie Burgis

19^th century Angland where men are the magical individuals and women run the government and politics. It would be interesting to experience at any rate.

Six of Crows Duology by Leigh Bardugo

Ketterdam is clearly based on Amsterdam. Either way, it seems like an interesting place to visit.

Second Star to the Left by Megan Van Dyke

Neverland!

The Fairy Godmother (Five Hundred Kingdoms #1) by Mercedes Lackey

The Five Hundred Kingdoms are home to our fairy tales come to life. I prefer this book to the others I’ve read in the series, but the location still seems like a nice place to visit – avoiding the evil wizards and creatures who wish harm upon everyone.

  Book Review – Hand-Fasting and Other Hazards
  Hand-Fasting and Other Hazards by L.L. Campbell is a stand-alone story by the author of Tricky Magic and Tricky Princess, but the plot that was both boring at times and overwhelming and rushed at others leave this one as something of a miss.
