Unabridged Audiobook
Decent book but she was kinda full of herself .
Entertaining story from a woman who experienced life differently from the conventional one most live in the US. Being an extravert helped, and her reasons for wanting her more independent life provides the impetus for her travels and stories. Always best when the author reads her own story. Yes, the book is all about the author. The title and book summary provide this information, so you would expect to learn about her ego, her achievements, and her failures.
Aside from some interesting views of exotic destinations, this was tough sledding Maybe all TV writers have to have enormous egos to give them the confidence to mow down the competition, but such complete egoism is puerile and shallow. It just doesn't make for good reading. Her idea of a profound thought is something that you would find in a junior high social studies essay. Also, a poor narrator-she sounds like a high school girl on diet pills I was really glad when this was over
Not my kind of read.
Really enjoyed this book. Never heard of her before but decided to download the book since it was a freebie. Very glad I did, I listened to it two mornings while walking and giggled a lot.
Funny, interesting, love the way it was laid out. It made me want to travel more! She's right about trading one kind of awesome for another and questioning whether or not you made the right choice!
A good, entertaining“beach read”. Similar to a Chelsea Handler book.
Perfect lighthearted travel or vacation read. Will make you want to travel. Being read by the author makes it all the more hilarious Kristen is both irreverently funny and thoughtful.
So many laughs! I truly wish I could do a trip with Kristin. She is so raw I love her! A must "read"!!!!!!!
I LOVE that its read by the author, you know you're hearing it exactly as she meant it to sound. Absolutely hilarious and inspiring. Officially my favourite book of all time.
Loved this book. I told my book club this is really one to listen to rather than read.
