Who hasn't fantasized about ditching work and pulling a Thelma and Louise? Well, don't even think about taking a road trip without a copy of Cameron Tuttle's Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road. Tuttle, who's crisscrossed the country several times, has written a hilarious, in-your-face, travelogue/self-help book (glove-compartment-size with a nifty hot-pink cover) that's sure to get adventure-seeking gals everywhere in their cars. The Bad Girl's Guide is jam-packed with practical and not-so-practical information on where to go (the Elvis Is Alive Museum, Lizzie Borden's House), which Road Sisters to bring along (preferably ones with trust funds), essential tunes (Donna Summer's "Bad Girls," natch), as well as indispensable tips, such as 14 ways to open a beer bottle on your car and 11 uses for a condom (pony-tail holder, snakebite tourniquet). The format, with various sidebars and boxes, is a bit cluttered and the nuts and bolts info a bit sketchy, but Tuttle covers a lot of ground in 192 pages--and she answers that all-important question: what car did Thelma and Louise drive? A '66 Thunderbird convertible. --Jill Fergus

Cameron Tuttle's degree in English literature from fancy-pants Brown University makes her eminently qualified to write "The Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road."

Cameron Tuttle's degree in English literature from fancy-pants Brown University makes her eminently qualified to write "The Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road."
"It gives me great delight to have been paid to write a book about how to pee beside the road without splashing or flashing," says Tuttle, cruising south of Market in her root beer-colored Isuzu Trooper. She's munching beef jerky, often her breakfast of choice on the road.
Her amusing little guide has hit a nerve with nice girls longing for a little Thelma and Louise action. It has sold more than 30,000 copies since it was published in May and just went into its third printing.
"My father thought I'd wasted my education studying English poetry," she says. "I'm getting my revenge writing a pink vinyl book."
Packed inside that hot pink cover is a saucy pastiche of tips and shtick. It's about the pleasures and perils of being a "road sister," freed from the restraints of daily routine and societal expectation-even if just for the weekend.
