Quotes for "How to Love San Francisco"
"It reads like an entertaining blend of narrative nonfiction and POV travelogue."
Lisa Rutherford, Co-Founder and CEO at Coliloquy
"Really well written and I couldn't stop reading it!"
Lucy in the Sky with a canon, SF photographer
"This book sets up a fresh, somewhat frisky and unusual "take" on San Francisco. The author teases us with questions that ask us to look at our stereotypes. And she presents an answer about San Francisco not being what we think it is. It’s an "island nation" not just a city. We liked this fresh voice, which is very hard to attain with travel articles about popular cities that have been written about so many times before. We wanted to turn the page to see what other nuggets the author brought forth."
