Most of my TBR is travel lit/essay/narrative, although very little of it is wish-listed; I don't hold out too much hope that most of my travel lit WL books (1 of 1 for a while on most) will ever come through either. Anyway, thought I'd post to see if others head to this section of the store first, too? |

I don't head to this section first (I always hit the Book Bazaar in hopes of finding that one special deal) but on rare occasions I look here. :) |

I have seen other threads in other PBS forums where there was great response and lots of listings for travel essays/literature. In my experience, these forums, by genre, get very little response compared to those at the top of the list. |

This travel forum doesn't get a lot of business, but I have swapped a bunch of travel books and essays. They seem to be as popular as any of the fiction I have had on my shelf, and more popular than the other non-fiction.

Personally, I see a LOT of travel essay come across my daily digest. And they go off my book shelf fast too. |

Insight Guides get snatched up almost instantly, even if they are old. The rest of my travel books, I had to do a 2 for 1 to move them.

I do quite a bit of trading here with my travel memoirs and most that I've rcd were WLed. |

Memoirs and first-person accounts always do well. Travel guides, not so much.

I've posted quite a few travel adventure books in the past month or so. If you click on my nickname above you can go to my bookshelf and browse - mountain climbing, polar trekking, bicycling "off the map" accross Siberia, rafting the Boh, etc. I hope you find something you like. |

I have about 3 shelves of travel memoirs on my TBR list and a bunch more on my wish list. It's probably my favorite non-fiction genre. But I have noticed they don't get posted very often. |
