I believe The falconer by Elizabeth May takes place in Scotland and Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier takes place in England!

I have Anna and the French Kiss on my list too. That book made me want to visit Paris 🙂 I am intrigued by the one on Egypt. I have never read anything set in Egypt but that looks like a good read.

It’s because of the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning that I badly want to visit Ireland (:
That place just sounds… amazing.
Hmm… where else? Japan, for sure. Though I honestly don’t think I ever read a book that takes place in Japan. Strange, considering I love Japan so much.
From your list I’ve read Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Anna and the French Kiss (by the way ^^). And some of the other books you mentiones I heard about but have yet to read them (:

I LOVED Strange and Ever After, and I really liked Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I haven’t read any of the others, but I hope to soon get to Anna and the French Kiss, Blackhearts, and Prisoner of Night and Fog!
