Summary: I agree with secondnature review... could use editing.
Review: I have read many RV travel books. This book has good subject matter, however, I find it strays again and again to the "isn't the wonder of the computer world amazing" theme. When published, this may have had more impact, but now the "wonder" is old news. I enjoyed the first half of the book more than the last.

Summary: An incredible life adventure.
Review: I loved this book!! It is very inspirational and uplifting. Megan took what could have been a great tragedy in her life and made along with her husband Mark, something beautiful out of it. Her book really brings home the point - life is what you make of it!!!! A must read for anyone, especially those stuck in a rut. Megan will definitely inspire you to move out of it and live your dreams - she did and is. Great work - Megan!

Summary: A wonderfully written inner and outer journey.
Review: I read a lot. I also am picky about which books I pick to read. They'd better pay off or I put them down. Megan Edward's book was a great choice. I couldn't put it down. She's a wonderful writer. What makes a wonderful writer? I want to get to know her better and I want to see where she takes me. She's funny, she's insightful, big-hearted and she makes me want to read more. She asks, (I'm paraphrasing here...) "What would you do if one day you had no more stuff to tie you down?" She got to find out when her house and all of her belongings burned up in a wild-fire. She, her husband and their Road Dog, Marvin, took off in an RV and found out home is where you say it is.. I know for one thing, if I lost all of my stuff, I'd want Ms. Edwards book with me. What a great read.

Summary: The BEST things in life aren't things!
Review: Megan Edwards is the true Phoenix risen from the ashes - NOT just her unusual vehicle. I was at the meeting she attended just two days after the fire. She'd lost everything, yet even then she knew that it was a great, and rare, opportunity to do whatever she could dream with no restrictions - no excess baggage.You will paint vivid color images in your mind from Megan's lyrical writing. The challenge lies to NOT laugh out loud or NOT find yourself wiping tears from your cheek as Megan describes the good times AND the not-so-good times. She philosophically understands that to reach the real truth and the absolute freedom of your dreams, you must synthesize all times - good, bad, happy, sad - all of them part of the enlightenment ahead.

Summary: Good book but in need of an editor
Review: Overall, I enjoyed this book. It was great to see how they dealt with what could have been considered a tragedy and turned it into a good thing. I do think she could have benefited from an editor --her thoughts were not always well organized and she tends to stray away from her subject and wander into disconnected thoughts.

Summary: Phoenix One Rises!
Review: There's always a catalyst to embarking on a "road less traveled" and, for Megan and Mark, it was a terrible tragedy. Yet embark they did, with all the courage and hope in the world that everything would turn out all right, no matter what happened to them along the way or how bleak things seemed. Megan takes us along to experience not only the external journey of new places and new friends but also the internal journey of doubts and frustrations. This is a delightful read for anyone who's ever wondered what it would be like to throw off the traces and explore.

Summary: One of my favorite books ever
Review: This was probably the first book I ever bought from Amazon.com. I was doing research for how to stay online while going on a summer road trip and it turned out that www.roadtripamerica.com had a lot of information for me. I ended up reading the introduction to this book and had to buy it. I loved the way Megan just captured my attention and imagination. I still get tears in my eyes remembering favorite sections and I've forced quite a few people to read it too. (OK, that it isn't the most helpful review, but I wanted to write something and didn't have a lot of time.)
