My husband and I read it out loud to each other on our honeymoon and laughed out loud the whole time :) I haven't read any of his other books, but I have a feeling that Neither Here Nor There won't be the next!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236275337479478234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7533410326820379706.post-64406428480244136272011-06-04T10:54:44.484-05:002011-06-04T10:54:44.484-05:00Thanks for the recommendations, Carin!

I'd be interested in Under the Tuscan Sun although I do enjoy history. Thanks again!Chellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04506296443676360367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7533410326820379706.post-38786862439150426102011-06-03T15:17:49.187-05:002011-06-03T15:17:49.187-05:00I'm sorry there were parts of this book you lo...I'm sorry there were parts of this book you loathed - I love all of Bryson's books dearly! His best regarded is A Walk in the Woods although I think my favorite was I'm a Stranger Here Myself. <br /><br />If you want to read other travel memoirs, I recommend: Assassination Vacation by Sarah Vowell, Under the Tuscan Sun by Frances Mayes (but not the sequel), and A Voyage Long and Strange by Tony Horwitz. The 1st and 3rd have A LOT of history in them whereas the 2nd is good if you just want to hear about wine, bread, and fixing up an old house.Carin Siegfriedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07278383926500248048noreply@blogger.com
