End of the Rope: Mountains, Marriage, and Motherhood by Jan Redford

Did not finish book. Stopped at 29%.

I didn’t find myself engaged by Redford’s narrative. I have some knowledge of climbing and mountaineering and that’s what I thought the book would be about: her love of the outdoors and how that love led her to the men she married. Instead, she just seemed lost and whiny, hoping a man would heal her. Maybe I didn’t read far enough for her to get to the point where she realizes this. I also am not a fan of people who take dangerous risks in dangerous activities. Mountaineering and climbing are inherently dangerous and she seemingly does things to ‘prove’ her worth, which is not a way to do anything.
