Rated A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail 8/10

This is not the male version of Wild - no hard-earned self-discovery, not many stupid mishaps. Instead, this is a pleasant stroll up the Appalachian trail (or at least parts of it) with sprinklings of history and local color and the stresses of an unlikely hiking buddy relationship. Altogether enjoyable. A nice bedtime read.

Rated The Potty Mouth at the Table 2/10

Potty Mouth is a collection of ~5 page humorous essays written by a jaded, germ-phobic woman with the sensibilities of the late Joan Rivers. This isn't a book I would typically pick up, but it was chosen by my book club. The book was somewhat amusing at times, but this was overshadowed by the author's very narrow view of what is acceptable on Planet Earth.
