Wild in book reviews

author: Cheryl Strayed

I am very much an armchair traveler. I used to think I wanted to walk the Appalachian Trail, but having read Bill Bryson's account of his trip... uh, never mind! This book, was not humor, although there are sweet, humorous parts in it. The Pacific Crest Trail is the western counterpart to the Appalachian Trail, and is MUCH more remote, has fewer travelers and seems to be even more difficult.

In her 20's the author made many decisions about her life, some were self-destructive others self-affirming. This is the story - written about 20 years later - about those years.

Good read!
