Awesome writing! Great story. Brings back interesting memories of my three weeks on the island.

Excellent read! This Henry Martin guy writes great prose and a captivating story line.

Good story. Men are pigs. Ladies get hurt. I've been there.

This is a good book! Really enjoying it.

What a powerful treatise! This should be required reading in all high school civics and American history classes.

I've been very preoccupied with finishing my latest novel, "Blinders Keepers", but David Swanson is a constant source of inspiration and clarity.

"I finally pushed through that barrier of stubbornness I’d always carried to see a new reality, one where I was unbelievably blessed by all the wonderful, positive things in my life.

What beautiful writing!

"Super-sized, baseball-capped American tourists wearing uniformly unattractive white socks with sandals tromped about with big cameras strung around their necks, many of which rested on surprisingly large beer bellies." Boy, she got that one right!

Ha ha ha! I know this too well: sleeper buses, toilets not fit for a rat, the suicidal bus drivers, old people hunched over in fruit and vegetable stands everywhere.

I feel like I'm part of the family! I particularly feel the pain of this adolescent girl trying to deal with the prospect of being uprooted from everything that is comfortable and familiar.

"The yin and yang of his soul struggle for balance between the seeker and the wanderer." Good book!

This book is hysterical! But I'm a sucker for British humor.

Excellent, spell-binding thriller.
