This week’s Weekly Wednesday Blogging Challenge question is A sport I want to try
One of the best parts of reading is the quiet ache you get when you finish a book and think: I don’t want to leave this place.
Some fictional worlds are chaotic and dangerous (looking at you, Westeros), but others feel like places I could happily live forever.
Here are five I’d step into in a heartbeat:
🦁 Narnia in the Golden Age
Not the Narnia of White Witches and winter — but after. When Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are ruling as Kings and Queens, Cair Paravel glitters at the edge of the sea, and talking animals roam freely. I want the peace, the feasting, the old magic still echoing through the forests. Let me ride a talking horse and sit down to tea with a faun, please and thank you.
🌿 The Shire
All I want is a quiet garden, a well-stocked pantry, and a stack of books by the fire. The Shire’s slower pace, long walks, and second breakfasts sound like a dream — no world-ending quests, just a good pipeweed-scented breeze and the occasional party tree lighting.
☕ Viv’s Coffee Shop from Legends & Lattes
A cosy coffee shop run by a retired orc adventurer? Count me in. I’d spend my days tucked into a booth with a cinnamon roll the size of my head and a book I can’t put down. It's a world where kindness, community, and coffee matter — and I love that.
📚 Fern’s Bookshop from Bookshops & Bonedust
Tucked away in a sleepy town, Fern’s shop is full of dusty volumes, comfortable silences, and the kind of magic that lingers in the air even after you leave. It feels like a soft space — a sanctuary. I’d be a regular, no question.
🌌 The Federation Future from Star Trek: The Next Generation
Not a bookish world, but one that’s always stayed with me. A future without poverty or war, where exploration and understanding are the priorities? Sign me up. I’d love to live in a world built on curiosity, compassion, and connection — plus, holodecks and replicators sound incredible.
Some fictional worlds are filled with peril and plot twists — but these? These are the ones I’d live in. The ones with coffee, community, quiet magic, and hope.
What about you?
Which fictional place would you visit — or stay forever, if they'd let you?
