30 Books in 30 Days - Book 2

Today I read Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer (recommended by Bartek).

It is a fantastic collection of non-fiction stories (all branching from the main story) about the kind of adventurer I most sympathise with. The main character very much reminds me of me, though I imagine that's the case with most people who read it. It is glorious in the same way Dead Poets Society is with all its Thoreau-inspired marrow-sucking.


Would I reread it? No. The most quotable, memorable bits are the quotations from other works.

Would I recommend it? Most definitely.
