Dropping the Venal turnaround for a Teresa outright purchase
and a lot of predictable scenarios,
Eighty Days delivered a fun new premise to Jules Verne re-creations.

Rescue of brave force Sumaya was a highlight...not sure why Dominic is not waiting for someone so "fantastic."

Fun to see Dominic and Romy grow along with their adventures!

Inspired purchase of Thomas King's INCONVENIENT INDIAN.

This book was so much fun to read! A bit predictable, but perfect for a summer beach read. The main character is adorable, and all Outlander fans who have fallen in love with Jamie Fraser will lover her, too.

*I was provided a copy of the book by the publisher and NetGalley for review; all opinions are my own*

Eighty Days to Elsewhere is the ultimate road trip book and a fun, fast read that combines two of my favorite things – books and travel.

The comps for this novel were Around the World in Eighty Days meets “Amazing Race”. If you’re familiar with this reality show, you know the pace the travelers are on, and how little time is spent in each location, so that should set expectations about her travel experience. This is no slow stroll through Paris! (Her Paris adventure was anything but what she had planned…) I love the idea, too, of a literary trip that follows the path of Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days, and to attempt it in a short amount of time is the perfect setup for chaos.

Add the fast pace to Romy’s complete lack of travel experience and the sheltered life she’s led, and you’ve got the perfect set-up for some hilarious and/or unfortunate disasters. She’s awkward, she’s definitely not very worldly, and she undergoes a lot of personal growth in the book. There are a few details that come out late in the book which might have actually explained a lot about both Romy and Dominic (no spoilers).

I think Eighty Days to Elsewhere is perfect for literary lovers who are currently experiencing wanderlust.
