Review: Wild - Cheryl Strayed


Yes, I know it's the movie tie-in cover,
but this is the copy I have!

Title: Wild: A Journey from Lost to Found

Author: Cheryl Strayed

Summary: Cheryl Strayed lost her mother to cancer at the age of 22 and fell into a life of drugs and sex. Trying to find her way again, she decides to hike a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail completely alone. Wild follows this journey, as Cheryl reflects on her past and how to deal with pulling together what remains of her old life and starting a new one.

Rating: ★★★★


Review: 

Wild is one of those books that you know you adore from about ten pages in, but when you try and enthuse about it to somebody in the real world, you just end up gesticulating frantically and trying to find something else to say apart from 'It's SO good!'
