We love reading, and we also love traveling, but there is nothing we love more than combining the two. Nothing beats a bookish break, whether you’re physically traveling or being magically transported to new cities through a book. I’m always looking for the next bookish destination or book to take me away from my room. Therefore, I have curated a list of 5 cities and the books that bring them to life. Travel with me to some of my favorite (or dream) destinations through these amazing book recommendations!
Tulip season is almost over, but that doesn’t mean the magic ends! Amsterdam is the perfect city break for anyone looking for Instagram-worthy spots. The city has it all, including a marriage of convenience, should you happen to need one, like Dani from What Happens in Amsterdam by Rachel Lynn Solomon. Dani and Wouter’s paths have crossed before, but this time the stakes are higher. Falling in love with your husband is never easy, but falling in love with Amsterdam is always easy!
My next recommendation has earned quite the reputation as everyone’s favorite travel movie. But as readers, we of course have to turn to the book as well. Crazy Rich Asians is that story, and we can’t get enough of the Singaporean luxury or Nicholas Young. Crazy Rich Asians blends traditional culture with unrealistic expectations and luxury in the dreamiest way, making it the perfect escapist read. If you’re left craving more of Rachel and Nicholas after finishing the iconic movie, it’s definitely worth diving into the book version for even more drama and diamonds.
Miami is the perfect place to unwind on the beach with a book or dance the night away. Combining palm trees and skyscrapers, Miami is one of the most unique cities and forever one of my favorite destinations. Only Lovers in the Building by Nadine Gonzales releases this summer, and it transports you to Art Deco apartments, palm trees, and the city that never sleeps. Miami may not be the place for growth or rebirth, but it’s the place to get messy, at least if you ask Ben and Lily.
Edinburgh, Scotland, is on every reader’s bucket list, and for good reason. It’s a city that almost feels created specifically with readers in mind, with cafés and bookstores on every corner. History fills the streets, and as you step into the world of dark academia, what better book to pair it with than Anatomy by Dana Schwartz? Anatomy takes place in 1817 Edinburgh, but don’t let that scare you away, you might actually step back in time when visiting (touch stones at your own risk). When an aspiring surgeon meets a resurrection man who digs up bodies for a living, fate almost feels real. Anatomy is a gothic tale with the perfect mix of mystery and romance, an essential read for any Edinburgh visit!
As a massive lover of K-pop and the swooning world of Korean TV dramas, it has been a dream of mine to visit Seoul for many years. Seoul is a city famous for its blend of history and modern innovation, making it the perfect destination for culture lovers! The city is filled with famous landmarks, such as Namsan Tower and Gyeongbokgung Palace. Heart and Seoul by Jen Frederick feels like a warm hug, transporting you to your favorite drama and the bustling streets of Seoul. Heart and Seoul is a heartwarming story of forbidden romance that can either welcome you home or destroy your chance of finding love.
