We do most of our sightseeing through the written word here at Frostbeard, which occasionally spills over into our book-themed travel bucket list. From misty moors to sparkling oceans, our travel list is filled with a lovely mix of cities, landscapes, and countries we’re planning to visit someday. Here are a few of our favorites.

In our experience, the movie is practically never better than the book (there are a few rare exceptions, like The Princess Bride).

Here are some of our most anticipated movies to see in 2019.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: we adore romance novels. The bodice rippers, the paranormal love stories – if it’s well-written, we’re all for it.

Whether you’ve got big plans with your loved one or are spending the day treating yourself, we’ve got a romance novel for you.
