Beautifully written, honest, and heart wrenching.The candor with which Strayed chronicles her experience of loss and grief is at times ugly and unflattering. But even though my life is drastically different from the one that she narrates, I see a lot of myself in her. Reading this memoir was a humbl...

I have mixed feeling about this collection of letters - some inspired me and made me think (it's surreal to read about the things that happened to you objectively) and others left me unimpressed.

I both enjoyed and loathed this book. I enjoyed the exploration of the wilderness. I despised Cheryl. She was as dislikable as Eat Pray Love.
