I am a HUGE Bill Bryson fan, but "The Road to Little Dribbling" may be my least favorite so far. The pages are filled with Bill Byron's typical whit and whimsy, and maybe that is the problem. You still get the laughs, chuckles, and giggles but what spawns them got old - sort of like listening to a visiting uncle repeat a family joke over and over again. You smile, you may even still laugh, but it just isn't as exciting. I can only hear about Bill having a beer and dinner by himself so many times without beginning to feel sorry for him.

The Road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson is a thoroughly enjoyable book. It is a follow-up to Notes from a Small Island and offers a fascinating tour of Britain's lesser known points of interest. Bryson offers his own take on the various oddities of British culture and tries his best to explain them, I highly recommend this book.
