November Travel Plans: Finland

November 2024

Finland

For the month of November, I am going to be reading books from Finland or that take place in Finland! This is the standard that I'm going to be attempting to follow throughout my time writing on this blog -- picking a location I would genuinely want to visit (but can't because... money) and pulling together a list of books that can take me there. As I read, I'll review the books and pull together a list of places that I've visiting through reading so that one day, if I win the lottery or something, I can remember all the places I've visited in my head and actually go there in person. 

 

The Books I've Selected: 

True by Riikka Pulkkinen

The Summer Book by Tove Jansson

Let the Norther Lights Erase Your Name by Vendela Vida

My Cat Yugoslavia by Pajtim Statovci

River of Shadows by Karina Halle

The Palace of the Snow Queen by Barbara Sjoholm

The Year of the Hare by Arto Paasilinna

Christmas at Frozen Falls by Kiley Dunbar

The American Girl by Monika Fagerholm

Palm Beach, Finland by Antti Tuomainen

I don't know how many I'll actually get to, but I'm looking forward to exploring Finland, where the books take me, what foods or nuances they share, and just every little detail I can glean from them. 

Thanks for reading!
