The Latest Reviews
"A Travel Junkie's Diary" & "Peking to Paris"
“One of the top ten travel books of Spring 2013.”
Publisher’s Weekly
“Her [Bennett’s] writing captures the beauty of the austere landscape, changing social dynamics with other teams and the nuances of her shifting relationship with her husband. A fun ride, worth the trip.”
– Kirkus Reviews
“Where travel memoirists tend toward the intrepid adventurer, Bennett is another sort altogether. [Peking to Paris proves] it’s all about the journey, not the destination.”
– Booklist
“If your journeys are limited to armchair exploration, consider [this] travel memoir…”
– Bookpage.com
“Ms. Bennet is a gifted writer, an adventurous woman…willing to overcome her fears…a source of many comedic observations.”
– New York Journal of Books
What readers are saying:
“[A] travel memoir that truly captures the stomach-twisting anxiety and elevating high of going on a trip.”
“I found myself reluctant to put down the book and go to bed.”
“Bennett’s descriptions were excellent and you felt as if you were on the journey with them.”
“To say more would be a major spoiler, but please read the book!”
“…[T]his intrepid traveler… exposes her emotional self with raw honesty.”
“I was immediately hooked. So many times I laughed seeing my husband and myself in the same situations. This book delighted me and I was sorry to get to the end.”
“I felt like I was along for the ride. This book was part travelogue, part exploration of human relationships, and part history lesson. A very well written book.”
“Her writing is fantastic, their story is incredible, and the trip makes my mouth water.”
