>>805260>book shit like movieYep. If anything, it's a little worse than the movie cuz she goes more into cunt-leaking detail about all the touchy-feely emotional safe-space bullshit about her mother (easier to inject that shit with a book I suppose). There's more of solid play by play narrative to the whole hike which is where I'm making the accusation that -of the section of the PCT she hiked- she actually didn't hike that much and hitch hiked/cheated large parts of the path.
Now you might be wondering why, since I obviously hate the movie and book so much, did I read the book. I did it because people I respect kept asking me about it. I finished the book and movie because I saw a lot of people who would potentially really enjoy hiking getting corrupted by this woman's bullshit and I wanted to be able to speak articulately about it and to be a stronger force against it. So in short;
FUCK THE BOOK.
FUCK THE MOVIE.
Being out isn't that hard, in fact, it's the best thing ever. It pisses me right the fuck off when someone takes out their goddamn fucked up problems and life on something I love and in turn poisons the minds of other people.
