Carsick: John Waters Hitchhikes Across America by John Waters

3.0

Interesting read. i listened to it and john waters reads it. the idea was a good one - john waters hitchhikes from Baltimore to San Francisco and tells the story. but he starts out with two novellas - best case scenarios and worst case scenarios. they were full of his quirky, self-proclaimed filthy take on what the good rides would be like and what the bad rides would be like. the novellas were full of very strange and outlandish things which make it hard for me to recommend this book. some of the stories were funny, but a lot of people would probably be offended by some of it. the actual trip was interesting but not very exciting - hitchhiking really is mostly made up of waiting on the side of the road, afterall.
