If your family hasn't planned a vacation yet, think about visiting a city or location you've read about in a book.
Perhaps you have a favorite author who lived nearby. Many famous authors homes are museums which are open to the public. I've visited homes of my favorite authors on several occasions. Each time, I came away with renewed interest in their books and appreciation for the hard work it takes to be an author.
If you've just finished reading a great mystery novel which takes place in your city - get out and take a tour of the locations in the book. The clues will come alive when you see the locations in person.
You may have read a book which takes place in a sports setting. Here's your chance to tour a ball park or visit the team's training camp.
You may be fortunate enough to meet other fans of the books you admire on your travels.
