100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition Book Review

I LOVE everything about Cleveland! The history, the sports, the weather … well, maybe not that last one.

I’m in downtown Cleveland almost weekly attending events, meetings, or just exploring the city with my family. While I was born and raised in a suburb of Cleveland, I know that there are still many hidden gems that I’ve never visited. When my friend, Tonya Prater, co-author of the book 100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition, sent me a copy of her NEW book, I couldn’t wait to see what was inside. After reading it, I discovered that she and her co-author, Deb Thomas spent a lot of time finding a treasure trove of places to see in and around the Cleveland area.

100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition is the ultimate guide to finding the best things in the city and, for life-long residents, new ways to explore old favorites. It has information to help you find the best food, festivals, museums, outdoor activities, and more.

What I love most about this book is that it’s a easy read. The book is divided into 100 mini chapters highlighting a different place or event on every page. As a busy mom, who doesn’t get to dive into books as much as I would like, this is perfect for a few quick reading sessions.

Looking for unique places to visit in Cleveland? You’ll find it in here! Did you know where you can purchase a hot dog with chunky peanut butter on it? You’ll find it in the book! Want a list of the unique festivals that happen throughout the year? Yea, it’s in there too! I love that it offers so many places that Cleveland residents may not have tried out as well as highlighting the top places to visit for Cleveland visitors.

If you love to shop, be sure to read the fashion section. You’ll enjoy reading about all that Cleveland has to offer. Want to find places that the whole family will love? The sports and recreation is full of places to visit and what to see at each destination. Don’t skip the index which has suggested itineraries and activities by the season.

Seriously, I’m keeping this book in my car so next time we are in town, we’ll be able to explore with purpose. If you don’t live in the Cleveland area, 100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition will have you wanting to pack your bags!

100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition is available on amazon and wherever books are sold.

🎪✨ I ran away to the circus last night, to see the 🎪✨ I ran away to the circus last night, to see the Tony-nominated musical @w4emusical at @PlayhouseSquare!  Based on the bestselling novel, the story follows Jacob, a young man who unexpectedly finds himself joining a traveling circus during the Great Depression. What unfolds is a beautiful tale of adventure, love, and finding your place in the world under the big top.  The production is mesmerizing. The stage bursts with circus energy, featuring an incredible cast of acrobats, aerial performers, and jugglers pulling off one breathtaking stunt after another. And the puppetry? Pure magic. Even though you can see the performers guiding the animals, they somehow melt into the background, letting the imagination bring the characters to life.  It’s creative, emotional, and visually stunning from start to finish.  If you’re looking for a unique night out, this show is in Cleveland for a three-week run through March 29—and it’s definitely worth seeing! 🎟️🐘  #hosted #broadwaycleveland #bwycle #W4EMusical
