I love this topic idea! I feel like there should be plenty of mountains and forests and islands and maybe oceans. Would Howl's Moving Castle count as a geographical feature? Here are some of my favorite books, or books that sound like they could be my new favorite books, with exciting geographical terms in the title!
Books With Geographical Terms in the Title
- The Farthest-Away Mountain by Lynne Reid Banks--This was one of my favorite books as a kid, it involves a journey up a mountain, and it's a one-off fairytale/fantasy.
- The Grim Grotto by Lemony Snicket (A Series of Unfortunate Events #11)--I loved these and there are plenty of great geographical names throughout the series (Lake Lachrymose, Briny Beach, Swarthy Swamp!), but this one gets the whole book.
- Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel--on my list, but I've heard good things and I like her other books
- The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern--same as above
- Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery--one of my absolute favs
- Brokeback Mountain by Annie Proulx--a classic
- Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier--a different type of classic
- Miller's Valley by Anna Quindlen--I love the feel and writing of all Quindlen's books, but this one was exquisitely grounded in the setting of Miller's Valley.
- Virgin River by Robyn Carr--I haven't read the books, but I've enjoyed the TV series and especially the sense of place and lovely aerial shots of the river.
- Bayou Book Thief (A Vintage Cookbook Mystery) by Ellen Byron--I haven't read this one, but I'm loving the title!
