Challenge: Book Road Trip hosted by Stephanie @ In Wonderland

For this challenge, I'd like for you to come up with a list of the top 5-10 states/places you'd love to visit and find a book (you either read or want to read) that takes place in that state/place or a book by an author who lives or is from there.

London, United Kingdom: Clockwork Angel, Cassandra Clare

New York, USA: Where She Went, Gayle Forman

Paris, France: Anna and the French Kiss, Stephanie Perkins

Scotland: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, J.K. Rowling

Italy: City of Masks, Mary Hoffman (okay, a little bit of cheating, since it's an alternate version of Italy... but I remember I adored Hoffman's version of the country back in the day)

Challenge: I Spy... hosted by @ Paperback Dreamer

For today’s challenge all you need is your bookshelf and/or your eReader, and a fun attitude!  I’m sure many of you remember the fun “I Spy” books when we were younger, it would tell you to find a particular object in the picture of clutter and you would have to find it, well I thought it would be fun to do that with our book covers.  The object of this game is to find the specific items listed below using the books you own!

• snowflakes 

• flames 

• a city skyline 

• the moon 

• a sword 

• a wedding dress 

• high heels 

• fog 

• a Christmas tree 

• sunglasses 

• lightening 

• a tattoo 

• combat boots 

• hand-cuffs 

• a road

Oh dear, this sounds so much fun... but time is short, and I think I'd be racking my brain trying to find some of these... I don't think I own a book with either a wedding dress or handcuffs on the cover. Clearly I've been reading the wrong stuff, lol.
