Jolene R. Whitten:
If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?
Jolene R. Whitten
I have two answers for you!
First, the 1940s London of A J Pearce's novel, Dear Mrs. Bird. Why would I want to live in London during WWII? Because my mom grew up in England during the war and after hearing all of her stories about it over the years, I'd like to experience what she lived through as a girl, firsthand.
Second, the much calmer book world of Three Pines, the rural village south of Montreal depicted in Louise Penny's Chief Inspector Armand Gamache novels. Though a lot of murders seem to occur there, ironically it seems like a fun and relaxing place, filled with interesting people. I can just see myself sitting in the bistro, drinking coffee and munching on a delicious pastry!
