This is the Road Trip list! ^^ 


When I read Paper Towns by John Green and loved it, I realised I had barely read any books about road trips. Then I read Going Bovine and it was all kinds of awesome ( Review: http://oopsireadthatbook.blogspot.in/2012/05/going-bovine-by-libba-bray.html ) , and so I am now gonna read a whole heap of books about road trips. 

1) On the Road  by 






Is it kind of embarrassing that I have not read this book yet? Yes. It is. And that must be changed soon. 


2)  Life of Pi by 

Okay well, accepted this is more of a sea voyage than a road trip book, but it's an exception I made for this book because it's about a Tiger. And, I have a soft corner ( Translation: Obsession) for the Felines. Not to mention, much like the time when you are on the lookout for the perfect Woody Allen meets Jesse Eisenberg meets Seth Cohen hyper intellectual, neurotic guy, but you get totally distracted by a super hot french musician; well, this is like that time. A Man Booker Prize Winner being much like a super hot musician. French one. Stupid analogy. Because  I'd totally prefer the dork. 

3) The Least Awesome book by 


I started reading. Didn't like it as much as Paper Towns or Looking for Alaska. But whatever, John Green is John Green. This book is third person though. Meh. 


4) Saving June by Hannah Harrignton

I really didn't wanna read this because I had made up my mind it was a quintessential romance book.  But then a lot of people recommended it and I heard the main guy is like a hipster-ish dude who loves Neutral Milk Hotel or something. Anyways, I remember liking the music he likes, and it is a a road trip book, and the cover isn't shabby either so whatever, I'll check it out.

  4. One of my fave road trip books I read in High School, and it was odd reading for a high schooler (many moons ago) was something like "On The Road With Charles Kuralt" by Mr Kuralt. And I loved it, for some odd reason. The writing style just kept me going as I was learning about his road trips.

  9. Mussels belong to the class Bivalvia, phylum Mollusca.

    Baltimore City, like sister region Baltimore County and other areas around the country, are always in need of ways to
    reduce costs and expenditures. According to the next decade there is a double-digit growth, increasing by 15% each year, only 5
    years, 1.
