A Walk Across America by Peter Jenkins

5.0

I remember my dad reading this book years ago when I was a teenager. From the minute the dog entered the story I knew the dog was going to die at some point. Whether that is something that stuck in my subconscious or not from my dad having read the book I have no idea, but it was there. *sigh* I'm not a dog person, but come on. The poor guy, losing his furry friend. I dreaded the page where that would come along, and then when I got to it I cried.

That aside, it was an excellent read, and there is a lot I could say about it. I particularly enjoy the concept of a narrow-minded individual giving people a chance and finding out that there is a whole world of people of all kinds, and learning what makes them tick and just seeing how they live is seriously fascinating.
