Most of my favorite Sarah Dessen books take place at the beach.<br /><br />Books about schools and academies, especially boarding school, appeal to me too, especially in the fantasy genre. I blame Harry Potter for this obsession Mythology and awesome European places (especially the UK) were on my list as well.<br /><br />I haven't read any books about assassins, but I am intrigued. (Have you ever seen the show <em>Nikita</em>? It's kind of brilliant and it's about assassins and the leading actress, Maggie Q is freaking amazing. I highly recommend it.)<br /><br />Great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1507411199240448096.post-66017370748571014792013-05-02T17:24:06.859-04:002013-05-02T17:24:06.859-04:00I'm attracted to stories involving boarding sc...I'm attracted to stories involving boarding schools and mythology too.
