Book Review of Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail

Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail
getinmybellykelly avatar reviewed on


I thought this was a wonderful book. I saw the movie prior to reading it so I definitely felt like I could picture in my mind what was happening as I went along, which is neither a pro nor a con. I loved hearing about Cheryl's journey, the ups and downs. It was very raw and real. I guess I have a thing for books about hiking, as I also loved Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods". "Wild" was well-written and straight from the heart. I commend her courage in taking that physical journey as well as her courage in feeling her way through an emotionally devastating time in her life.
