traksnis 's review for:

Wild by Cheryl Strayed
5.0

I was bummed by all the negative reviews. This woman was so open and honest about her life after her mother died. I doubt many people could be so candid. I admired her courage and, even when it would have been easier to succumb to her desires for companionship or the "real" world, she stuck with her goal of finishing the trail alone. I feel like those who knocked the book down are intimidated by her candor and scared that they could never have the same courage.
