Book Blogger Hop Day: May 20-22

This week on Denim-Jacket Librarian Dishes:



Book Blogger Hop

As Crazy For Books says:

Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books!

This week's question is:

 "If you were given the chance to spend one day in a fictional world (from a book), which book would it be from and what would that place be?"

My Answer: I'd have to say Ixia or Sitia from Maria V. Snyder's Poison Study and Fire Study.  In that world you're able to learn magic, horseback riding is the main form of transportation, and the setting varies from snow-covered mountains to lush jungle.  It sounds simply beautiful, and if I could spend the day with Yelena, Valek, Janco, and Ari, that would be my dream fictional world.  ^_^

    I haven't read Poison Study, yet... But it's on my ever growing list! I can't wait to start on it to read about this world! :)

    Haven't read them, but horse back riding near snow covered mountains sounds pretty awesome!

    One of my first choices but I narrowed it down to a more old school approach! :)

    What a great choice! I read the Study series last year and loved it! Ah, to spend a day with Valek...

    Have you read the Glass series? Because they're set in Ixia/Sitia too. Not quite as good but still ace books!

    I’ve seen a lot of great picks and gathered some fresh titles to add to my ever-growing TBR list. My answer will probably stun most people because the world I picked is a place most people would be scared to death of and try to escape from. Me? I want in.

    Hooping by to visit and follow! I like Maria V. Snyder's science fiction better than her fantasy, but she's a great writer, no matter what the genre. :-)
