Book Reviews of Assassination Vacation
Book Review: 4 stars for the idea
Summary: 4 Stars
I am a fan of Sarah Vowell. I enjoy her commentaries on NPR and as part of this American Life. I LOVED Take the Cannoli, but somehow Assasination Vacation didn't live up totally to it's glory. It was good and I would recommend it, but it pales a little in the shadow of Take the Cannoli.
But being a slightly morbid person, I couldn't pass up a book themed on assasinations, especially from someone so wry and amusingly bitter.
