I really enjoyed this book. I had heard of the story of Chris McCandless on a television news show some months ago, so I was a bit familiar with the story and interested to learn more. McCandless reminded me of people I have known in the past - young, invincible, and in search of...something.
This book generated a lot of heated discussion, however, at my book club meeting. Some did not enjoy the bookat all and found McCandless to be irresponsible and selfish. This prompted not so many arguments, but instead, meaningful discussions and reflections on our own youthful adventures. I recommend this book because as a work of nonfiction, it prompted me to consider the limits of my own dreams.
