Into The Wild
As, a high school student at Sunset High School, in the years, have never read a full book because no book kept me wanting to read it. But Into The Wild was so great, it just kept me wanting to read. Into The Wild is my first book I have read, from the beginning to the end. GREAT BOOK!

Rated 1 of 5 of 5 by Kirsten
Poor
I had to read this book for english, and I did not enjoy it as well as I thought I would have. Sure I understood it better than my friends, but that's beside the fact that the book bored me to death. I agree with other people when they say there are to many characters, and if you're doing a project on it, there is way to much information to be found on it.

Rated 2 of 5 of 5 by Amanda
Im not impressed
This book was very confusing,and hard to follow. I had to read it for my english class and no one in our class passed the test. I found this book to be good in a few parts but overall it was boring! I think I would rather read a dictionary to be honest. I enjoyed the story line, but you jumped around to much and you added to much about other people. Overall I would not suggest this book to anyone! Sorry Krauker this book was weak!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Jennifer
Thrilling
This book is one of the best books that I have read. I have never really been intrested in mountain climbing and journeys like the one Chris took but I really enjoyed this book and could barely put it down. I am now much more intrested in reading other books about such adventures like "Into Thin Air". I suggest that everyone read this book once in their lifetime.

Rated 4 of 5 of 5 by Anthony Reese
Wonderful Experience
i believe this book to be one of the more intresting books for me to read throughout my highschool years. I just finished reading the novel and it was truly hard to put down once i read on into the latter pages of the book. I believe any one and everyone should read this. It is a book that gets you to see how the mind of someone other than you actually functions. Great Read!!!
