Assassination Vacation by Sarah Vowell

4.0

---

Who would think that reading about the assassination of President Garfield could be so entertaining? Many interesting tidbits, with even some "laugh out loud" sections, combined with learning some American history I didn't already knowed made me enjoy this book. I would like to try some of her other books, maybe on audio next time. I think her style would lend itself nicely to listening. Matt suggested The Partly Cloudy Patriot and Pass the Cannoli sounds interesting, about Frank Sinatra and the Godfather.
