This book was very interesting! Since reading Gary Paulsen's book ‘Hatchet' in elementary school, I've thought about it constantly. The survival of that character left a lasting impact on me, the same way I think Gary Paulsen's memoir will.
Paulsen lived a rough and honestly, a crazy life. The amount of learning and self teaching he did is mind blowing and it was awesome to learn so much about his childhood and teenage years.
It took me a while to get used to the writing in this book, since it was written in third person. Once I did though, I flew through it in one sitting and now all I want to do is read the rest of the author's survival stories.
Thank you to Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, and NetGalley for providing me with an eBook copy to review
