harumph. :)
i found this to be a very disjointed read that didn't ever work into a cohesive whole for me. it had a lot of potential, and i loved some of the writing lot, but i just ended up feeling this was just weird - and not in a good way. wild spends a lot of time building up the mysteries, slowly dishing out information. ultimately, though, it really fizzled at the end. so that was quite a shame. wild has an evocative way of writing, the characters and settings were interesting but the flow was just so clunky - it made me wonder what was changed, sacrificed, or improved during the editing process. rather than being swept away by the story, i was paying more attention to the style and writing.
