Great Read, Great Laugh
I've been a Bill Bryson fan for years now, and as funny as his books are, listening to this one definitely made it even more enjoyable. It was a bit embarrassing when I kept bursting out laughing in public, but it's a very small price to pay for the great entertainment.

Bill at his Best
Would you consider the audio edition of Notes From a Small Island to be better than the print version?
Yes, in a book like this is better than printed.
What other book might you compare Notes From a Small Island to and why?
Well it has to be Down Under by Bill Bryson too. I am English by birth but now an Australian, I learned more about Australian history from Bill reading Down Under than others as he seems to pick those stories that is well, just darn more interesting. He does the same here about the English.
Which scene was your favorite?
Bacon and Eggs, early morning rain and cold... I remember it so well. Cold wind Swept port towns dark and closed. Yep remember those well.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Cringe maybe, as I have memories like these myself. Cringe in a nice way Bill.
Any additional comments?
Enjoyable, if you grew up in England through the 70's and 80's a lot of this will hit home. But for anyone else, it is still a fun read/listen.

Sadly, I spent money on this book
Sadly, I spent money on this book. I am sure other readers may enjoy the book. Perhaps I have outgrown Bill Bryson in the same way that I outgrew PJ O’Rourke. Not Bill Bryson’s fault.

Bryson delivers again
Probably not my favourite Bryson book but very good nonetheless. Narrator was perfect, I prefer him to Bryson's own narration. Very entertaining.

Notes from a small island
Having lived in the UK around the same time as the author, I related so much to his accounts of life in Britian. I went down memory lane with him and loved every minute of it. Never has a long commute to work been so enjoyable, never have I shed tears of laughter whilst driving to work - it was wonderful.
I recommend this book to any anglophile person and all those who have lived in England - it will bring back memories, smiles, some regrets and the resolution to return and visit this great country.

It does what it's supposed to ...
....which is to give one the idea what it was like to be in the UK 20 odd years ago!
I recall reading the actual 1st edition and loving it. I was foreign to the UK myself, in my early 20s and I thought so many things were very apt. Now re-reading (listening to it) years later and as an adult I am not so convinced about it, but I still recomend it as a good starter pack to life in Britain. It has to be followed by the sequel The Road to Little Dribbling, as the Britain that BB describes here, is definitely long gone!
