About this listen
Wild is a powerful, blazingly honest memoir: the story of an 1100-mile solo hike that broke down a young woman reeling from catastrophe - and built her back up again.
At 22, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother's death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State - and to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail was little more than “an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise.” But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone.
Strayed faced down rattlesnakes and black bears, intense heat and record snowfalls, and both the beauty and loneliness of the trail. Told with great suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild vividly captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

But I want to keep walking with Cheryl.
I feel as if I was along for the journey (minus the blisters and bruises). The bravery and fearlessness of this young lady is humbling and admirable. I know I wouldn't have lasted one night.

Great adventure book!
Loved the movie so I listened to the book which was equally as adventurous and exciting, with many more events and details.
My only small feedback is the readers Swedish accent which sounds very Asian haha, but other than that everything is perfect.

Inspiring and makes you look inward. I was moved beyond words. It like a story of a caterpillar turning into a butterfly.
