Book ~ "Honeymoon With My Brother: A Memoir" Franz Wisner (2006)

From Amazon.com ~ Franz Wisner had the world by the tail. He was engaged to Annie and he worked as a government-relations official for a California real-estate giant, rubbing elbows with bigwig politicians. But then his fiancée dumped him days before their wedding and his boss demoted him. So he dragged his younger brother, Kurt, a Seattle realtor and divorcé, to Costa Rica for his already-scheduled honeymoon, where Wisner spilled his guts to a prostitute in the hotel bar. Both inspired and desperate, the two quit their jobs, sold their houses, gave away their belongings and traveled the world for two years, romping through Europe, then hitting the Middle East, Southeast Asia, South America, and Africa. Along the way, Wisner got to know his brother in a way he never had and fought to move past his failed relationship.

This is the next book we have to read for our street's bookclub. Though I usually don't like the books that are picked (everyone else seems to), the bookclub has introduced me to books I wouldn't have read otherwise.

I enjoyed this book. It was interesting to read about their travels and his attempt to get over Annie.
