Different from other travel books. The photos are unique and artistic (some of them are very sexy, too!). Foglino writes with a sense of humor (an over decorated Virginia spa reminds her of "the inside of a pillow-case"). This book is a far cry from the usual rehash of brochures pix and promotional come-ons. It's fun to read and fun to just look at!

This book saved my life! Had to go on a long, stressful trip to the Southwest and knew I'd need a break at the end. I found Spa Journeys in my doctor's office (of all places!) and used it to find an *incredible* spa in Arizona. It doesn't just tell if a place is good or bad; it explains how you can turn your trip into a really intense, positive, life-changing experience.

I'm planning a trip to Europe this summer and will use Spa Journeys for that, too. Thanks, Linda and Annette!

Each spa gets a quick overview on 'whether this spa is for you.' Full of helpful information and Ms. Foglino's writing is vivid and engaging. This was one travel book I actually found myself reading (I find most boring).

The photos are unusually beautiful too. Photographer Linda Troeller can make a mud bath into a work of art. My one problem with the book is that most of the spa resorts are pretty expensive (there are only a couple that are for the budget-minded.) It would make a great present for a friend or relative who loves spas, or someone who likes to dream.
