NEW YORK |
Last year to commemorate the holiday season I made a string of special posts inspired by the Twelve Days of Christmas and this year it is back but the topic is new and I hope just as exciting as the last. This years the countdown will be on Novel Destinations. Stories where the setting was not just a mere back drop but an extra character in the story as well. So enjoy and let the fun begin:)

12 Out of Africa by Karen Blixen
11 Angels and Demons by Dan Brown
10 Quentins by Maeve Binchy
9 The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
8 Hunchback of Notre-Dame by Victor Hugo
7 City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

New York is Clary Fray's stomping ground in City of Bones. The novel sites many well known, famous New York sites in the novel and the city acts as the perfect backdrop to story of the Shadowhunters. But then again New York is a pretty amazing backdrop.
I couldn't agree more! I love stories that are set in New York! What a great idea for a blog post, looking forward to reading the others!
