I was captured by the writing, more specifically, the attention to detail and tangents about Sherpas, religion, and personal conjecture....Sandy Pittman was so frustrating, I was going crazy over the South African team, and I was just in awe over Beck...Who wants to be freezing all the time anyway?...Seriously, Beck Weathers - you must have some divine purpose on this Earth...After reading the last sentence from his last radio call I just started to cry...Namba!!!...Jon, you did your best...This book was amazing and hard to put down.
Taylor read this book and loved it too. You two twiners can talk about it the next time we get together :)
ReplyDeletemakes you wanna just buy some sticky stuff off of a kid on the street, roll it up into some leaves, smoke it, and just cry in a hot, sweaty room for a couple of days.... right??? :'( first time i read this was 6th grade. just dont watch the movie where shooter mcgavin from happy gilmore plays the role of krakauer. disappointment of my life.
