Bike Snob

Between the two of us, my husband and I own 11 bicycles. Three of them are mine. I might own one bike if I wasn't married to my husband.

My husband reads the Bike Snob's blog and picked up his book as soon as it was published. He wanted to me to read it. My husband is definitely a bike snob. However, Bike Snob's book is not snobby. It's very accessible to people who aren't that familiar with bikes.

It's a quick read if you are interested in bikes.

Dixieland Delight

Dixieland Delight is the story of an author's football season traveling to all the SEC schools. As you may know, I am from the south and went to an SEC school for college.


If you've been to an SEC game, you know what the general atmosphere is like. Travis, the author, is no stranger to SEC football. His grandfather played for Tennessee in the 1930s.

At times, Travis was a bit much. His thoughts come off as somewhat crass and sexist. Overall, the book is funny. If you haven't been to an SEC game and are interested in what it's like, it's definitely true to form. And, I have to admit, I love 'Bama bangs.
