Welcome to Litsy!

My book Christmas gifts - can't wait to read all of these! #DavidJason #CeceliaAhern #JonKrakauer #Postscript #MyLife #OnlyFoolsandStories #IntoTheWild

I see stories in movies and read them in books like this. It is still unbelievable to me that people could actually be influenced to live this way. It just shows how people are searching for something and often fall victim to others who hold an evil strength. Must read for anyone who finds interest in religious cults. #jonkrakauer

This book is centered around Missoula Montana however represents the mindset of many towns across the country. As a mom it was difficult to read this book however it is better to be aware and educate our children. Jon did a tremendous amount of research which I find he does with all of his writings. #jonkrakauer

I connected with Chris so much while reading this book. He wanted so much for his life to be real and without pressure to live someone else‘s expectations. He had the desire however not the tools he needed, it‘s unfortunate how his story unfolded but magnificent all the same. #jonkrakauer

This was the book that started it all for me, went on to read several mountaineering books. Reading this book takes you to Mt. Everest and the life and death situations that actually occurred. Love Jon Krakauer. #jonkrakauer #intothinair

This has been on my #TBR list for far too long. I enjoyed the movie so reading the book must be better. Definately will get around to reading it one day.

This was a book I read for class, and I‘m so glad my professor assigned it. It was an overall gripping read, that had me wanting to find out more about Chris from start to finish. I was fascinated by both him as a person and his quest in the wilderness. If you want a relatively short work of non-fiction to read, this is an awesome pick.

4/5 ⭐️
