Loading... Notes from a Big Country: A Selection (1998)by Bill Bryson
   No current Talk conversations about this book. I enjoyed this book. He made some interesting obsetvations and it was an amusing read. If you are looking for a quick, funny read I would recommend it. (  ) queenofthebobs | Mar 14, 2021 |  Another winner from Bill Bryson. This book is a bit dated now, but for the most part that only adds to the hilarity. (  ) AngelClaw | Nov 4, 2019 | Bryson is such a great story teller.

Some laugh-aloud moments and several witty bits, but overall it's not my favorite of Bryson's work. Read straight through, there's just a little too much grousing for my tastes, and it makes Bryson seem more sanctimonious than I hope he actually is. (  ) electrascaife | Jul 7, 2019 | A little too Andy Rooney for me. (  ) cindywho | May 27, 2019 |
