A really enjoyable backpacker's story - written by someone with obvious travel experience behind her - with very few drawbacks.

What i.e. ticked me was the money issue: Now way can you take planes and trains to and fro Europe's capital cities and pay stays in youth hostels for less than 1300 Pounds altogether, if you have not booked your seat months earlier. But there was much more to like than to criticize.

I especially liked the subtle humor tickling throughout the book. And I liked Ginny's personality way better than Scarlett's (from Suite Scarlett). But my favorite Johnson-Book is still Let It Snow. ]]> <![CDATA[oliviasbooks added 'Gregor and the Code of Claw']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78877169 Gregor and the Code of Claw (Underland Chronicles, #5) by Suzanne Collins
