A review by astratton0123
Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer

3.0

I felt so uncomfortable reading this book, it was like passing the scene of a car accident and not being able to look away. The writing is searingly honest - at times to the detriment of the author themselves. It's a horrible, tragic, bitter exploration of the fruitlessness of high altitude climbing. All I took from this was a cellular level lack of desire to ever climb mountains. What a sorry mess of a disaster.
