Eden Travel Book Club
Welcome to Eden Travel Book Club! Here, you’ll find unique travel book recommendations, reading lists that spotlight memoirs and essays and stories in translation, and of course, our monthly travel book club pick. Each month, I select one travel book (either fiction or nonfiction) to read alongside you. In 2026, we’ll be traveling everywhere from Japan to Borneo to Croatia.
October Book Club Pick
Somebody Is Walking On Your Grave by Mariana Enriquez
- dark tourism essays and stories
- by a horror writer and alt rock lover
- set in: 🇮🇹🇦🇷🇪🇸🇦🇺🇨🇱🇺🇸🇲🇽🇵🇪🇩🇪🇨🇺🏴🏴🇨🇿🇫🇷
- what cemeteries reveal about
- history, culture, and the arts
“I understand my state of nostalgia perfectly: this trip is the end of my youth, a farewell that is planned and therefore more theatrical with precise rituals. One of them is to visit the cemetery and, before anything else, to take a photo at Marx’s grave in my leopard-print jacket.”
– Mariana Enriquez, Somebody Is Walking On Your Grave (pg. 202)
P.S. This is a no-pressure book club. You can join at any time. You can skip any month. And if you don’t like the book I pick, that’s okay too. Don’t feel like you have to finish it. I still love hearing your thoughts.
