I had to read this for school but I actually really enjoyed it!! It read very much like a movie (which was not something I was expecting from a memoir but I was pleasantly surprised!!) and it kept me hooked very easily. There were a few moments where things were a little repetitive, simply because she would restate something she had said in almost the same exact wording pages before.
Other than that, a really enjoyable, tense, and emotional read!
All deference to the author for her harrowing experience. I felt like this could have been shored up as an article for a hiking magazine instead of a 200-page book. Her life in London was typical, and I didn't really feel it was relevant to her survival story in the desert.
Loved this. Claire is a great writer and so much of this resonated with me.
