Motel Nirvana: Dreaming of the New Age in the American Desert by Melanie McGrath
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I wanted to like this book, an account of the author's journey through the deserts of southwest US. Maybe if I had read the last chapter first, I would have had more sympathy for the author. She takes a lot of sleeping pills and junk food, lives in motels and makes fun of new age types without ever seeming to really talk to any of them for more than a couple of minutes.
