Can’t get over:

“I put her burnt bones into my mouth and swallowed them whole”. 

I liked hearing about the trail, but also feel like she was so unprepared for the trail to the point of actual danger, and she was so male obsessed throughout.

this is a memoir where all i can really say is that im so glad cheryl was so open with her life in this book, giving us readers such an intimate look into her story as she took us all along with her on the pacific crest trail.

A cautionary tale to what it means to be young and naive. Good writing, sad but moving story, a series of very dumb and dangerous choices.
