Better than Fiction Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Some of the travel tales were a pure pleasure to read, others were mediocre. "

" This book sounds like a great idea, but I found that the stories were not all that compelling. After reading the first couple, I leafed through the rest, but did not find a lot that I thought were a great read. Maybe I had higher expectations? "

" Great book to dip in and out of .. great selection from some of my fav writers and others I hadn't heard of. I enjoyed about 80% of the tales "

" Another wonderful collection from the mind of Don George! "

" The writing was good, the stories...some good, some not. Overall, not a book I would recommend buying. Borrow it from the library. "

" Uneven quality, but overall pretty good. I love travel literature almost -- almost -- as much as I love travel. "

" Great collection of short stories. Perfect for subway trips. "

" Very inconsistent but has a few gems. Many are not stories so much as anecdotes. My favorites were Joyce Carol Oates, DBC Pierre, and Frances Mayes. "

" B Some good travel writings but others not as good. Some famous and wonderful writers I love like Allende and Oates "

" Yep. better than fiction! Read it! "

" I like to travel. I like to read. I like to be inspired by writers who travel. This collection is meant for me. "

" Some great (and not so great) short stories from fantastic authors. I really enjoyed it and, as with any book of essays, if you don't like the tale you're reading you know the next one is only a few pages away! "

" Couldn't get into this one. Read through a number of short stories and eventually stopped reading all together. "
