Recent reads -- I'm A Stranger Here Myself

I'm A Stranger Here Myself
Bill Bryson

I've become a big fan of Bryson's, simply because I wish I could write as well as he does. My sense of humor matches his and his books cause me to laugh out loud (called "laugh out loud funny" in book reviews.)

Here he reflects on America after being away for 20 years and while some of the humor is a bit obvious he does capture some of the quirks of America while also expressing great reverence. I would do no justice trying to replicate some of his humor here.

You can knock off this book in a plane ride.
