Word(less)Ful Wednesday - Queen of the Road

I am an avid reader and when the opportunity to review Queen of the Road was presented to me I could not resist. This book by Doreen Orion is about a Diva from the Island of Long (Long Island, NY - where I was born and raised) who is a self-proclaimed couch potato more comfortable in Prada than in the throes of domesticity. Imagine her chagrin when her husband Tim suggested traveling across country in a converted bus!

The story is the tale of their cross-country adventures in a 340 square foot bus (that of course has all of the comforts of home) with a dog and two cats! Doreen eases the pain of the journey with a healthy dose of alcohol - each chapter begins with a drink recipe named for the adventures at hand and over time Doreen appreciates the simplicity of life on the road.
Over time she learned more about her husband, developed an appreciation for the history of the locales they traveled and realized the life is more than just material things. For an entertaining, funny and educational read, I suggest Queen of the Road.
