What an amazing book! This is truly one of the first books that ever really touched my true emotions. I laughed and cried, and even after the book was finished, my thoughts wondered and I knew that it was one of the best books I have ever read. Nicholas Sparks …more

As a 17 year old high school student, I thought this book was perfect. It tells of the things teenagers go through and how in the long run we follow our hearts and not our peers. This book holds a special place in my heart because it hits so close to home. My best …more

This book inspired me in ways that I never dreamed possible. The use of language and emotion can easily relate to many teenagers today and I would highly recommend this book to anyone. I don't know who can finish this book without shedding a tear of satisfaction.

This is one of the most incredible books ever. It touched my heart deeply. It depicts the strongest points of love, and what one does for real true love. I'm a 17 year old girl in high school, and this book shows how high school life before is as much as it is today. …more

I think this is the best book I have ever read. I thought for the longest time it must have been a true story, because it is so beautifully written, like it was an old memory, that has been played through his head many times. I cant name you one thing that I …more

This book strikes hard and deep. This is the most touching book I have ever read. Even reading it twice doesn't diminish the feeling that it has engraved into my soul. The story is truly a picture of the joys and pain of living. It touches the very core of the God- …more

Walk in the Woods was a perfect choice for our book club. Even though we are quite lazy non-hiking ladies, we all remarked that we actually laughed out loud while we were reading this book. Our club members also like to dress like book characters and serve refreshments …more

by Bill Bryson

Wilbur Rittenhouse
I had read the reviews, as well as the glowing blurbs on the back, so read the book with high expectations. The book was OK, but I was quite disappointed. I certainly did not find the "mix of Dave Barry and John Muir". Bryson does not begin to approach …more

This book was, to borrow a phrase from the author, "exceedingly funny". Every page, paragraph, and sentence was entertaining. Not only is it a humorous account of Bill's trek along the Appalachian Trail, but was also very informative about many facets affecting …more

I have never enjoyed a book as much as these. The books were like holding a movie in front of you. I found myself laughing reading Neither Here Nor There even in my worst moods.

Barbara Boyd
I absolutely loved it for two reasons. The first is the wonderful humor. I would read it on my train commute to and from work, and I would be laughing with tears in my eyes at some of his stories, especially bubba t. flubba in Wayne, Virginia. The second reason …more

I have read all of Bill Bryson's books, but I thought that this must surely be one of the best!!

I bought this book recently even though I do not normally read travel literature. I loved it. It's laugh-out-loud funny - I couldn't put it down, and have since bought the rest of Bill Bryson's books, though this one remains my favourite. You live every moment …more

This book was the complete and utter height of perfection in writing. Every syllable of every word was filled with emotion and inspiration. This book was everything and more and everyone should read it.

I found this book fascinating. It really hit a soft spot along with the other people I shared the book with. She is an excellent poet and am waiting for her to retrieve another book.
