Into Thin Air: A Personal Account Of The Everest Disaster by Jon Krakauer

4.5

So suspenseful and anxiety-inducing it made my stomach twist at multiple points. Deeply personal and harrowing, but so engrossing to read. If you're a climber/outdoorsy/adventurous you should read and let me know what you think. I'm left with the oppressive weight of the human desire to conquer, and the desire to push both physical and mental limits to find the boundaries of human exploration.
