Ratings and reviews

Informative and Entertaining! I've never read a travel book before so I had a difficult time deciding what rating to give this. I volunteered to read it for a couple of reasons. 1. Jaye Rylon is one of my favorite authors and 2. My husband really wants to go to Australia and I'd like to go to New Zealand. So, reading an advance copy of Roaming with the Rylons Australia and New Zealand was a no brainer for me. I gave it 5 stars because it was entertaining and informative to read. It's also packed with lots of helpful links and inside information. Since I normally don't read anything other than fiction, and mostly romantic fiction, I was a little concerned that I might find a travel book too "dry" to be able to enjoy reading it. I was wrong, very wrong. 😊 Jayne Rylon's writing style in this book is like she's sitting there talking to me as a friend and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. If you're thinking about traveling to Australia and/or New Zealand, and want to read something entertaining as well as informative, I definitely recommend this book. An advanced copy of this book was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author.
