During this trek in the wilderness she reads, of course, like we all would.
Here's the challenge!
Read Wild and each book on the burned list found at the back of wild or the alternative if one is provided. After each book include your favorite quote or passage from the book you read, just like Cheryl did at the trail registry's she signed.

Alternatives are given as the guide books are probably only interesting to someone wanting to hike the trail. I am interested in them just to see the pictures :) Happy reading!
