The Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road

EW's GRADE
A

Details Writer: Cameron Tuttle; Genre: Travel

Practical, cheeky, and brimming with attitude, The Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road is a raucous mix of the humorous (underwear ''in the microwave at a convenience store...it's the ultimate leave-behind'') and the truly useful (panty hose can fix a busted fan belt). Cameron Tuttle reminds neurotic '90s women that sometimes being an on-the-road badass isn't just fun, it's necessary. This is a tough and spirited handbook for life on and off the freeway. A
