review:
'London Letters: From Angel to ZSL London Zoo, Discover Where to Eat, Drink and Explore' by LucyLovesThis is an unconvetional guidebook.

It's part insider guide and part art project. All the areas around London are assigned a letter, then the book proceeds from A to Z. For each area, there is a bucket list of things to do and see. The letter is drawn out with highlights of the area. A loose map of the area is then shown with highlights and transit stops, then a recap of stations, food and drink, landmarks, and things to look for in the area.

I don't know how well this would work as a guide for a first time visitor since it's presented in an A to Z fashion, but I loved how it was done. It also feels like the recommendations are a bit like you'd get from a local and not from a guidebook. I really had fun paging through this book, and I really liked the illustrations.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Grou-Rock Point, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
