====Carsick by John Waters 2014====
''Part 1, the best possible. Part 2, the worst possible. Part 3, the truth. It was a good read. I'm not extremely familiar with his work as a director, though have heard stories, and he does reference a lot of pop culture material. So it's a little hitch hiking novelty experience, a little namedropping, and a little fantasy. Beautifully short chapters dividing every ride. A book to be savored, read sparingly and daily. Enjoy!'' -Reese
====Hitch-Hiker's Guide to Europe by Ken Welsh 1977 ====
''I think that the book really does some injustice to some countries. Not a source I would want to discuss when traveling to certain areas of Europe.
But all the praises to first part of the book instructing all of us how to hitchhike.'' -Bojan
