Added Gimmerton which was mentioned in Wuthering Heights.
I've just added Toledo which was the place that the narrator had thought he was sent to be tortured. It was a very short read, but very well described.
didn't even realize that location was mentioned in pit and pend. Keep up the reading!
Thanks, I’ve got my work cut out for me if I’m to get through the list by the end of the year☺️.
Know what you mean. Many of us have to fight to the bitter end to have something to show for hehe. I am having my best reading year ever but still have 6 more to go with a full on work life in Q4.
Just added Willingdon mentioned in Animal Farm. It's quite a cute book, with not many pages, but of course it took me ages to read it amongst all the things I do. I recommend the read.
Just finished The Wind up Bird Chronicles, and there were many places mentioned in this book which was set in Japan, but I chose Siberia. Over 600 page long, so not a short read but achievable...if you're not me. LOL
I originally had Chateau D'if from the Count of Monte Cristo, but I changed it to Marsielle instead because Chateau D'if was the actually prison that Donte was sent to; although a place, it is a building (prison). Loved loved loved this book and although many many pages long, it's so worth it.

My all-time FAVE!
