Books Around the World Map
I’m so excited to share this book globe with you – it’s the best thing I’ve ever built (with amazing help from a lovely web developer because I’m techy but not that techy!). Instead of looking through long lists of recommendations, you can click around the globe and see books set in countries all over the world.
It’s part book recommendation tool, part reading adventure.

Why I made it
Books have always been one of my favourite ways to explore the world. The first time I realised I wanted to see India was while reading the Far Pavilions by M.M Kaye. 10 years later I got to actually see the Hawa Mahal, one of the palaces where the book was set!
My Book Globe is playful and beautiful and genuinely useful for readers who want to discover stories from all over the world.
