I loved this book! I loved it so much that I bought a new copy just to share with another BookCrosser. This book is an amazing, warm, funny book of unlikely transformation. Smithy is an overweight bachelor who drinks and smokes too much and doesn't have big dreams. After the sudden death of his parents, he tosses off his longstanding dullness and heads off - unexpectedly and unprepared - on a cross country bicycle journey to find his sister. This is a journey with such heart it will stay with you for years...

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Sending as part of the bookbox "Books People Would Actually Read and Enjoy."

I picked this out of the "Books People Would Actually Read and Enjoy" bookbox. I have read this in the past and it's one of my favorites. I am reserving this for another bookbox that I have signed up for.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Included in the If You Love Them Set Them Free Bookbox hosted by svoight. I read a copy of this book two years ago and really enjoyed it--I think others will as well. Happy travels!

I kept this book from svoight's If You Love Them Set Them Free bookbox.

I actually read this book last summer about the same time I was moving. Then it got packed into a box with a lot of other BC books, so here I am finally journaling it. I remember the gist of the story and that I enjoyed it somewhat, but I don't remember enough about it to give it a rating.

This book was placed in the Little Free Library.
