Book Review – Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper

I submitted my latest memoir, Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper to book blogger, Ilana, reader, writer and traveller from Wild Writing Life.

As part of a previous blog tour, Ilana, a Top NetGalley.com Reviewer, reviewed my book It Never Rains But It Paws: A Road Trip Through Politics And A Pandemic. She described it as:

Smart, curious and often hilarious. That kind of hilarious that only someone smart and curious can be. 

It´s for both armchair travellers and adventurous dog-lovers.

Since Ilana enjoyed my previous book, I sent her a copy of my latest, and here are some highlights from her lovely review:

In some parts I just couldn´t stop from laughing out loud…

I cannot wait to see what happened next…

I am pleased to say that I am working very hard on the sequel, More Manchester Than Mongolia, and hope to release it early in 2025.

Reedsy Discovery Book Review – Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper

I submitted my latest memoir, Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper to Reedsy Discovery, a platform for discovering, reviewing, and discussing books.

I suppose a memoir about building your own overland truck camper is quite a niche read, so it took a while for a reviewer to pick it up, but it finally returned a STONKING 4* review packed with enthusiasm and quotable quotes.

I feel very validated and it has encouraged me to pick up on finishing the sequel, More Manchester Than Mongolia, which the reviewer is anxious to read!
