À propos de cet audio

Bored and fed up with life, staring down a 50th birthday, Mike Tyler was looking for a change. Life had become routinized and unexciting. Maybe it was a mid-life crisis, or maybe just a yearning for one last big adventure. Mike decides to try hiking from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail, just to see what happens.

Mike convinces his wife, Margo, to join him. Together, they embark on a five-month hike full of anticipation. They hike through some of the most stunning and remote places in the country on a trail full of unique, offbeat characters. But the trail had even more to offer than either of them had anticipated.

Juvenile in description and story . Could not keep my attention and was annoyed at the dryness of the writing

Bland.

Loved this book

I appreciate the strength endurance and will to finish this thru hike. However this story was just bland. No real adventurous spirit or story here. Just a slow paced diary of the hike. Which was fine. I’m sure their memories will last a lifetime, but it was just ok. Narrator was pretty bland as well.

Not a fan of the writing style

How can someone take the potential excitement of a 5month hike and turn it into a general, monotonous description of every single action along the way?
The first 7 chapters describe meeting hikers with stupid nicknames, the close calls of almost being hungry, some nights with mosquitoes, a rattlesnake sighting and popping a zit on his back. One nail-bitting paragraph describes the disappointment of a vending machine not accepting their dollar. Oh no! She didnt get her ice cream!
The hiker nicknames is cringy. But what takes the cake is the use of stereotypical accents. The narrator has either never met a Canadian or is an idiot. More, in his world all women, naive, and simple.
Not sure how this book got published.

Uncaptivating
