It feels like some of it is  fabricated/exaggerated.

Not sure what to think of the portrayals of sex and desire - are they candid or authentic or crass or hyperbolic? 

I did, however, appreciate how every interaction with a man on the trail felt tense because that’s how it feels to be a woman. However, as a woman reading this, it was exhausting. 

If you’ve got family stuff, know it’s central to the book.

Wow, this book. I honestly avoided it for a long time, because I knew the story would make me sad, but I was on a trip and it was one of the only things available. As someone who has always felt more connected in nature than anywhere else, following Cheryl on her journey as a woman hiking the trail was incredible. Her story is an inspiration to anyone struggling with grief or addiction, showing how you can overcome and persevere even when you feel you are at your lowest.
