Review: Good present - Brought as a present but have been told otx is very good Review: Does mostly what it claims to do - Bought this book to help with holiday planning of an epic road trip. Lots of good information about each state, highlights key cities and towns with points of interest. The only downside is that it doesn't help with when to go to these states. Bit dissatisfied that it claims to tell you this on the cover, but doesn't follow through on the inside...

Average book
I love visiting the USA & am currently working towards visiting all 50 states. Normally before I visit a new state, I spend a while searching the internet for ideas of things to see & do. I had hoped that this book would cut down my researching time (after all it does have ‘5000 ideas’ in the title), maybe including lists with a 100 ideas per state but this wasn’t the case. It did give a spread per state, but the ideas side of things was disappointing. There were just bulky paragraphs to wade through & I certainly would be surprised if this lived up to the 5000 ideas claim. Overall, this book didn’t meet my needs so I ended up returning it. What works for me when I’m researching is bullet points or lists with minimal wording (anything that takes my fancy I can look into further). This didn’t seem to be any better for that than any other guide book & certainly no better than what information you can find online. If you’re looking for more limited information for each state in one place then this maybe more suitable for you.

Non piacevole da leggere
È una semplice guida turistica. Tutte info che si possono trovare online, e più aggiornate. Non è piacevole da leggere. Restituito!

Onto new memories and adventures
I am very pleased with the book I received and looked at my state first. It was spot on for accuracy I hope to use this book as soon as I can start traveling to all 50 states. The book is very nice and includes pictures and a lot of information about each state. I'm glad I got this first. It will save me time using chatgpt and I can immediately start planning my trips.
