Book: Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Book: Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Despite the facts that I have exactly zero desire to sleep outdoors and my hiking experience is purposefully limited to very established, well-populated trails, I was completely engrossed in Wild, Cheryl’s Strayed’s account of her solo trek through California and Oregon on the Pacific Crest Trail. Strayed writes in raw, honest, emotion-filled detail, illustrating the parallels between her internal (coping with the loss of a loved one, divorce) and external (the trail) journeys. The heartaches that served as the impetus for the expedition are as gripping as the account of the hike itself.

Note: I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this before (it’s probably pretty obvious), but my book posts are more of a “Books I’ve Read and Enjoyed” list rather than a review or plot summary. Just saying 🙂
