Beautiful, inspiring and sad. Makes you want to go out and find your own adventure.
Krakauer does a great job at remaining pretty objective when discussing the life and death of McCandless. Do I believe that a whole book needed to be written when Krakauer's original article would have sufficed? No, I do not. The book was interesting and I enjoyed the commentary from those who knew McCandless, however, the chapters that had nothing to do with McCandless and his story made me want to skim or stop reading altogether. Wonderfully written, but ultimately not one that I would recommend to others.
