I took this on a two-week canoe trip … big mistake. I had to finish it because I had nothing else to read. It was a strange read. Every time I thought he’d get into an interesting story, he skimmed over it. The focus was on irrelevant details with no expansion on the big trip picture. I did learn one thing though - always take a backup book when you’re out in the woods!

what should have been a gripping story of adventure somehow turned monotonous

[Rbs · Rating 2 out of 5]

It was an easy read, and it does wake the adventurous spirit. but somehow the book wasn't very satisfying. The author only gives brief insights into himself, and brushes over many situations that I am sure generated deeper or stronger emotions that he writes about.

Fabulous!
