Summary: "Avoiding Prison, Adventures in Romance & Danger"
Comment: I just finished reading this book and it was as much fun as a mini-vacation without having to endure airports/packing/customs. Her family, friends, and love interests are an amusing cast of characters, and the unusual places she visits give the book an exotic flavor of adventure, reminiscent of "Romancing the Stone." I especially enjoyed her South American escapades. Her descriptive writing gives a strong feeling of being there, and is delightfully witty and entertaining. Overall a fun summer read, but there are parts that draw you in poignantly to her problematic and romantic encounters. Highly recommended to anyone for an enjoyable travel/romance/zany read.

Summary: I could not stop laughing
Comment: This book is so funny at times that I laughed so hard my stomach hurt. My boyfriend finally had to tell me nicely that I didn't have to quote him every funny passage as I read it. For anyone who has been to Latin America, it brings back memories -- of long lines, broken-down buses, a bureaucracy that is scientifically inefficient. Wendy Dale is a fantastic writer. It's a great book to read if you love to travel or would like to explore the world in the future. It also makes you remember how nice it is to have basic freedoms such as the "innocent until proven guilty" clause of our law.

Summary: WAY FUN STUFF!!
Comment: I would love to be the kind of adventurer Wendy Dale is. She gets into some amazing pickles in this book. I laughed out loud, I shook my head in amazement. As I was reading I found myself longing for the kind of life that would fit into a couple of boxes and a backpack. Unfortunataley, I have too many books...
