What I'm Reading: Neither Here Nor There

Shortly after I returned from London, I read both A Walk in the Woods and Notes from a Small Island by Bill Bryson. I devoured both, and eagerly put the rest of his work on my to-read list. This was the first chance I've had to tackle any part of that, and I was excited to get back into Bryson's pithy narratives, this time detailing two trips around the European continent.

While it was definitely a quick read, this was not my favorite Bryson tome. This may have been due, in part, to the fact that as the book is outdated, having been nearly 20 years ago. Bryson is less mature as an author than in A Walk in the Woods, which also makes a huge difference.

All in all, an easy read that now I can say I've read.
