What readers think of Into The Wild, plus links to write your own review.

John Krakauer is an amazing writer, and his manner of telling the story of this lost soul is so intriguing! It's a quick read, but the reader gets so hooked, you can't stop reading! This book might make you rethink what you're doing in your own life.

This book haunts me yet today. I read it a couple of years ago and was not able to put it down until I had finished. I am not into "wilderness or hiking" and am not even a risk-taker yet I somehow connected with this tragic story. The writer enabled his readers to "feel" who Chris was and what he was about. He seemed to have captured his spirit and in so doing allowed his readers to experience the thoughts , hopes and idealistic view of this young man. Any book which keeps one awake at night has been worth the read. I like to think, feel, ponder, mull and reflect when I read a book. I did all with "Into the Wild." It is exceptional.
Although "Into Thin Air" was also quite good, it did not have the impact that "Into the Wild" did. I highly recommend this book.

This book is very hard to put down. I stated reading it on Friday and finished reading on Saturday morning at 2:30 A.M. I did not put that book down for a second. This book is full of tragedy and curious events. I reccomend it to everyone!

Depicts the life of a real life character. Love it!

It very good, u know. I love it

Good and interesting book.

it was great

If you stop look at other users opinions of this book you will see lots of "I had to read this for english class" freshmen talking from unmature minds. This book is not about adventure, Alaska, or the outdoors. It's about people. If you enjoy insight into others minds, Jon Krakauer does an excellent job of taking you into Chris McCandless's. This book is short and a great read. I Highly recomend it. As a college student myself that has suffered through plenty of "dry cracker" assignements, I stress to anyone recieving this assignment: Enjoy it! Its great stuff! When your done with school I promise you will remember, and it will be with fondness. Grant Conyers. 19. Arizona.
