Nerdy Girl, Romantic Reads

Literary Road Trip: Down Home

April 11, 2019 Comments : 4

I am a Westerner by choice, but a Southerner by birth. It is something that runs deep in my blood. Most of the books that I’m highlighting today have a special place in my heart – they’re intertwined in my person history and have played a role in shaping the kind of reader I am. Today, we’re taking a trip home.

Interview with a Vampire by Anne Rice

Louisiana (New School)
Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris

Arkansas
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou

    I like books set in the south – there’s a definite feel about them and I just love the culture.

      There is just some innate coziness that I feel reading a southern book. And if there is any mention of food, forget about it. I’m in! πŸ™‚
