TGIF at GReads is a feature for recapping the week’s posts (which I’m skipping this time since I did that yesterday pretty much) and answering a book-blogging question posed by Ginger.
This week the question is: Literary Vacations: If you could take a trip this summer to any place within a fictional book, where would you go? Tell us about your summer dream vacation!
My answer is HOGWARTS from the Harry Potter series!!! I have always really wanted to go to Hogwarts. I mentioned the other day that I would be a professional student if I could, so I think that a vacation to a magic school would be right up my alley. Also, I might have magic talents I don’t even know about yet. I am eagerly awaiting my field trips to Hogsmeade, classes with Prof McGonagall (who would be one of my favorite teachers because I always love the strict teachers), and time spent exploring the castle and its grounds. I look forward to the camaraderie of living with my fellow students and goofing off a bit. And I won’t lie, I am hoping to spend some quality time in the library with some of those crazy wizard books. I think I’d go down to Hagrid’s for tea every so often, though, I’m not entirely sure I could handle his taste in pets. Oh, and I wouldn’t mind taking a bubble bath in the Prefect Washroom. That thing is enormous, but we’d have to figure out a way to keep Myrtle out. She’s just too depressing. And since it is a vacation, I am going to forbid any of the bad stuff that happens at Hogwarts from happening. I mean, no vacation needs Voldemort in it. Please book me one ticket on the Hogwarts Express, please.
What about you? What literary vacation would you take?
