Toronto Reading Map
It's no secret that Toronto is a great city with great writers. It should come as no surprise to anyone that the city provides the setting for a whole lot of novels.
Toronto Public Library's Neighbourhood Reading Map not only identifies books that are set in Toronto, but breaks them down into specific parts of the city. There are 19 separate neighbourhoods identified including Don Mills, Parkdale and Kensington Market.
Take a look and see what we've found in your neighbourhood or explore another part of the city through fiction.
If your favourite Toronto book is not listed, don't despair. The Neighbourhood Reading Map is a work in progress and we're still adding titles.

One thought on “Toronto Reading Map”
Hello,
Perhaps I simply missed it while I was browsing through the lists, but it occurs to me that Maureen Jennings’ Detective Murdoch Mystery series isn’t here! I was a bit surprised, but perhaps you would consider adding them to the list? Though, of course, these books take place in many different neighbourhoods, so you might have to list them individually instead of as a series 🙂
But overall I love this idea! Thank you!
