It's definitely going on the TBR list.tinylittlelibrarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02889130720769404460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-7415145557684506942008-05-25T21:04:00.000-04:002008-05-25T21:04:00.000-04:00Debi, it is a fab summer read.

Chances are I won't be doing a lot of road tripping to cool places, but at least I could travel vicariously!<BR/><BR/>Julie, it's definitely something I'd like to try myself. Maybe not for a whole year, but long enough to see a good slice of the country!<BR/><BR/>Heather - I love a good travel memoir, helps make up for all the traveling I don't get to do and with the laughs thrown in, you can't lose! =)<BR/><BR/>Nicole, glad to hear it. =)<BR/><BR/>Doreen, thanks for stopping by! It was a pleasure reading and reviewing your book, and I'm so glad that I "got" what you were getting at. Sadly, I probably won't get to visit you on your tour as I'm stuck on this old east coast this summer - as with most summers - it seems I do most of my traveling in the winter when traveling is at its most treacherous (Wall Drug is awesome all year round - the rest of South Dakota, not so much). I'll be sad to miss it, though, especially the Las Vegas stop with "your" Elvis - that's a great touch! <BR/><BR/>Thanks again for stopping, it's nice to "meet" you! Here's wishing you the best of success with <I>Queen of the Road</I>! =)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751131767729086158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-40836001532338099542008-05-24T10:02:00.000-04:002008-05-24T10:02:00.000-04:00Megan,What can I say but THANK YOU!

I saw your review of QUEEN OF THE ROAD on Library Thing and found you over here.<BR/><BR/>I can't begin to tell you (OK, so maybe I'm not much of a writer, after all), how gratifying it is that you "got" it. I so wanted people to get caught up in the ride, to laugh, but I also wanted them to think and hopefully be inspired a little.<BR/><BR/>My book tour starts June 3rd (Los Angeles, Las Vegas - the Elvis who renewed our vows in the bus is going to perform - Portland, San Fran, Oakland, Phoenix, Denver and Boulder), and if you're in the area, I hope you'll come and say hello. The specific venues/dates are listed on my website, www.QueenOfTheRoadTheBook.com under "appearances and events."<BR/><BR/>Again, thank you!Doreen Orionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12026294659806001562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-9613098796632485892008-05-22T16:20:00.000-04:002008-05-22T16:20:00.000-04:00Sounds very funny!

There's something about travel memoirs that really get to me - I'm usually laughing out loud early on. :)Heather J. @ TLC Book Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474181812740579350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-17094022322517174992008-05-20T08:45:00.000-04:002008-05-20T08:45:00.000-04:00This book sounds great -- especially since I'm pla...This book sounds great -- especially since I'm planning to do the same thing some day. Well, maybe not in a converted bus -- a cozy, fuel-efficient RV would be more my style -- but I do love road trips (and martinis)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-21026979447881167392008-05-20T08:04:00.000-04:002008-05-20T08:04:00.000-04:00Okay, this one's definitely going on the old wish ...Okay, this one's definitely going on the old wish list!
