    1. Sophie Kinsella is great. I love her first Shopaholic book, Can You Keep a Secret, and Twenties Girl, too. :D Thanks for commenting!

  2. I've only read A Walk in the Woods from this list but, I really liked it. Bryson is a great writer, his memoir (he's around my age) really resonated with me at times. The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid.

  4. I couldn't do this week's topic off the top of my head so I had to go rogue. I could only think of one answer and it would've taken all week to complete it!

  10. Bill Bryson is probably the funniest writer I can think of. In one of his books he described buying bread in a bakery in Paris and I was crying with laughter.

    1. Bill Bryson is awesome! He did this whole thing on the game of Cricket in his book In a Sunburned Country that still makes me smile. :)

  11. A WALK IN THE WOODS landed on my doorstep an hour ago. Literally! I ordered it last week and it arrived today. I've never read anything by Bryson, so I'm excited to read it. It's been on lots of lists today, which makes me even more anxious to get started.

    Happy TTT!
