Synopsis

Narrated by Brianna MadiaIn this beautifully written, vividly detailed memoir, a young woman chronicles her adventures traveling across the deserts of the American West in an orange van named Bertha and reflects on an unconventional approach to lifeA woman defined by motion, Brianna Madia bought a beat-up bright orange van, filled it with her two dogs Bucket and Dagwood, and headed into the canyons of Utah with her husband. Nowhere for Very Long is her deeply felt, immaculately told story of exploration—of the world outside and the spirit within.However, pursuing a life of intention isn’t always what it seems. In fact, at times it was downright boring, exhausting, and even desperate—when Bertha overheated and she was forced to pull over on a lonely stretch of South Dakota highway; when the weather was bitterly cold and her water jugs froze beneath her as she slept in the parking lot of her office; when she worried about money, her marriage, and the looming question mark of her future. But Brianna was committed to living a life true to herself, come what may, and that made all the difference.Nowhere for Very Long is the true story of a woman learning and unlearning, from backroads to breakdowns, from married to solo, and finally, from lost to found to lost again . . . this time, on purpose.

Goodreads review by Sam on August 28, 2021

I think people leaving a one star review prior to even reading the book completely speaks for itself. The 'reviews' on here (mine included) clearly come from a personal place. The negative reviews all repeat the exact same points over and over, and at this point it's just boring. It seems to me that......more

Goodreads review by Anna on April 02, 2022

Brianna Madia is an Instagram Influencer who I followed for a short period of time a few years back. I read her book on recommendation from a friend, who is a huge fan. To be fair, I think if you are a younger person who hasn't ever gone camping or had much experience adventuring alone - you may enj......more

Goodreads review by Tommi on March 22, 2022

I’ve been following Brianna Madia since just before the Dagwood incident. (If you know Madia, you know what I’m referring to.) Part of what drew me to her are her abilities are a storyteller. Full disclosure – I have been openly critical of how she feeds the social media beast, the dangerous devil-m......more
