3.0

I love Free Solo and was hoping for a bit more depth about Alex Hunnold's climb of El Capitan. I sort of got that here. But I also got a lot of the history of rock climbing and the author's personal backstory, neither of which I found very compelling. At times, it was a slog to get through sections but sometimes there were some interesting stories or details. That said, I couldn't shake the feeling that the author was struggling to fill space since the documentary covered so much so well. This book fills in a few gaps Free Solo left but you have to wade through too much miscellaneous content to get there.
