What Members Thought
This book was an interesting account of what the author thinks happened to Chris based on accounts of people that he met along his journey and the diaries/notes he left behind.
I thought Krakauer's deduction of McCandless was thoughtful and insightful. The author's comparison of his own folly up Devil Thumb helped give weight to how Chris might have been thinking when he went up to Alaska. It was a terrible tragedy but a provoking and exciting read.

Loved the movie but the book was all over the place.
A well researched thought provoking book. Sticks with you.
