The Book Club by EDGE Escapes

The way we travel is changing.

In 2026, people aren’t just booking destinations — they’re booking feelings. Atmosphere. Mood. A sense of story before they ever step on a plane.

This guide highlights eight places quietly rising to the top of travel wish lists — paired with the thrillers that capture their essence long before departure.

Think of it as a passport stamped first by fiction.

What’s Inside the Guide

  • Eight destinations poised to define travel in 2026
  • One carefully chosen thriller for each location
  • Stories that capture the tension, beauty, and psychology of place
  • A reading list designed to make you want to book the trip

Why Escape with

The Book Club

"I have enjoyed every book choice so far and absolutely love the monthly, and sometimes twice a month, interviews Juliana has with the authors. This is the best part of this club and it is Juliana's personality and warmth that makes this a special place to check in, drop a note in the chat, hear about other good books, and see members share a bit of their lives with each other regarding the places they are going, books they have enjoyed, or author news. Such a joy and delight to belong to this club."

-Terri Clark
