Today, I am delighted to feature a book by fellow writer, Nevin Martell – Freak Show Without a Tent. I really adore Nevin’s writing and his sense of humor in particular. This book captures it all – travel, food, kids and the craziness of it all! A good story in the hands of a talented writer is the perfect combination — a book that you cannot put down. It is a terrific read and I highly recommend it.
