Here's to me having the energy to do a Top Ten Tuesday this week! Finally! I enjoyed last week's topic, plus I've visited a few of the same bookish places as Jana , so I'm using her list to jumpstart mine. 😊 Me at the State Library of Victoria in 2025 Top Ten Bookish Places I've Visited --and I hope to visit many more in my lifetime! Shakespeare & Company Bookstore in Paris, France--This was one of the highest on my to-do list when I was in Paris. I wasn't able to buy a book as I was a poor student backpacker (space being actually more of an issue than money) but I'm so glad I went! To me, it makes me think of Sylvia Beach, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas plus Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Joyce--all the Lost Generation in Paris, especially back when I idealized that more than I do now. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City--Kid me was not very interested in museums but I always wanted to see the Met because of From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil...
