On the Shelf: Books Set in Prague (but by foreign authors)

This past week, my friend Jasmine Silvera released the second book in her Grace Bloods series, Dancer’s Flame. I've known Jasmine since she was in Prague writing her first book (and, um, actually I’m officially the first book’s godmother and so kind of invested in this…) and I'm thrilled to see her universe, set in a dystopian future Prague, come to life in a second volume. The story centers on Isela Vogel, a dancer who can call on gods through the power of dance and her relationship with the city’s most powerful necromancer, Azrael.
 
Jasmine did a great job showcasing the city, but often when I pick up a book about a place I know well, I worry if my own experiences are going to take away from my enjoyment of the setting. For example, my own familiarity with Prague makes me hypervigilant to the details, but it’s really not fair to expect an author to always put every cobblestone in the right place. For most books, it's more about catching the spirit of a location and emphasizing only the details that evoke the sensation of being there.

Four mysterious packages arrived in the mail for me today (well, mysterious because I actually thought I'd ordered only three books last week, yet four came...) and one of them held my paperback copy of the GRATITUDE, GOOD NEWS & GUIDELINES Creative Non-Fiction Anthology. I thought it would be fun to make a short video of me unwrapping it. Happy watching!
