Yeah, I'm obssessed with the modern Brits now. Nick Hornby, Ian McEwan, David Mitchell, even some Sarah Waters, the just have them all!

Thanks for offering France tips, but I've moved on to good old Italia instead, the gorgeous Amalfi coast to be specific. Any pizza tips then? Or tips on how to avoid being run over by scooters?

Bill Bryson's "Thunderbolt Kid" is great. funny as hell. "The River of Doubt" about Teddy Roosevelt's near death/badass trip down the amazon after he lost his presidency is good one. Although, it's probably tough to get these books while in Brazil.

"Read 'A Long Way Down' by Nick Hornby," says the random creepy bored girl currently stalking random people's profiles. It's hilarious!
