I wanted to go into this book hating on the author, because she starts off like a complete dumbass by setting off on a a multi-month hike in the wilderness with literally 0 hiking experience and no physical fitness.
However, the fact that she continues to hike for 3 months straight and by the end is doing 20 mile days, as much as any experienced hiker would do, makes me feel respect for her - at least she didn't give up!
