Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Subtitle : From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail -- I had been looking forward to reading this for a long time.  Sadly I was a little disappointed.  I know people go through transformations when they take on a trip like this, I had not realized how much she was going to go through.  She was not really prepared for the trip and it was truly an escape for her.  I just found her to be kind of whiny and woe-is-me, and that is just not my kind of person.  Her ordeals on the hike were tough and you could really feel how unforgiving the trail was.  Overall it was an okay book.  I guess I just like people who are a little more positive and realistic.
