I couldn't put this book down for anything. It got to a point where, as I was nearing the end of the book, I got heartsick at not having this book in my life anymore. I almost cried when I finished it. I HAD A LOT OF FEELINGS!

I just admire this woman so, so much. I could completely relate with the author with her relationship with her mom. I have the same close relationship and the thought of her dying when I was 22 is like a dagger to my heart. I'm not sure how she kept on moving after that. So I had an immediately kinship to this author. She had guts, bravery, vulnerability, honesty... I wholly enjoyed reading her story and following her journey.

This book is a must read.

But no, I have no need to go on my own hike. Even for a night. Nope.
