Top Ten Tuesday: Settings I'd like to see more of


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish

Not sure I'll be able to come up with ten, but we'll see.

Top Ten Settings I'd Like To See More Of (Or At All)

1. Different African countries

2. Germany

3. Eastern Europe

4. Australia

5. Exploration and settlement of Canada
 (since there are so many, esp. Christian historical fiction, set in the American west)

6. The smaller royal houses of Europe

7. The late 1600s and early 1700s in Colonial America

8. About people with common jobs
Hospitals and court room make for tense drama, and waitresses meet all kinds of people, but teachers, janitors, grocery store managers, and welders can also lead interesting lives.

9. Cruise ship crew and other modern sailors
I recently read reviews on Amazon about a behind-the-scenes book written by a guy who works on a cruise ship, it sounded interesting except there was too much sleeping around and lewdness.

10. Which settings would you like to see more of?

    1. Thanks! I wonder if any authors are out there tallying all the suggested locations? It'd be an interesting study...
