Read it or Weep

Dori and I seem to be on the same reading track lately. I am currently also reading The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner and just finished Jar City by Arnaldur Indridason, the first book in the Icelandic mystery series featuring Inspector Erlendur. I am adding Iceland on my list of places to visit. I frequently visit places I’ve read about; that’s why I took a trip to Castine, Maine for example. I read the book Castine by Patricia Chute, tried to figure out if it was a real place, and then later included the small town in the itinerary of a trip I took to Maine. I also visited Prince Edward Island, Canada largely because I had read all of the Anne of Green Gables books as a girl.     ~Ann
