| Author | Lynda Curnyn |
| ISBN | 0373250150 |
Although I like chicklits, I didn't really like this one. Maybe it is because of the nagging main character Emma.

I gave up on this book because I HATED the main character and got tired of her insulting pretty much everybody, including overweight people. (Not other characters in the book, mind you; these were general rules to be applied to all of humankind.) Maybe she redeemed herself later in the book, but I wasn't...

*audiobook review*
One of the best things about Burning the Map is that it surprised me. I was expecting something that fell neatly into the Chicklit genre, and instead I found a story about real friendship, self-identity, and travel.
