TripFiction – so much more than a database and book reviews
BOOKS SET ON LOCATION
TripFiction was launched a few years ago to provide an easily searchable database of books with a strong sense of place and to help the reader see a location through an author’s eyes. How much more enjoyable is a holiday if you’re immersed in a book where the characters are walking the same streets as you and you’re sharing the same history and food?
Or the vicarious sense of travel you get from reading a book in the comfort of your armchair at home?
Most have reviews that rate each book by the strength of location and content and new books and reviews are being added to the database every day.
#TALKINGLOCATIONWITH
#TalkingLocationWith – are articles where authors give the reader an insight into the research they undertook for a book’s destination, the characters they may have met there, the writing process and even some tips on best places to stay, eat, and visit when you find yourself walking in the author’s footsteps:
