Lost in the Wild
Cary J. Griffith
Danger and Survival in the North Woods
Lost in the wild is about two different men who are lost in the
Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
I enjoyed Lost in the Wild. The Boundary Waters are only about 4 ~ 4 1/2 hours away from my home. We know many people who enjoy a getaway to the Boundary Waters. I have not been to the Boundary Waters. I have new respect for those who do venture into this wilderness.
It was a fascinating read.
A creative novel by Katarina Bivald, she used books, many of them that we all have read, in her novel. It is well done, I enjoyed it and it made me want to open a bookstore.
I have not heard of this one.
ReplyDeleteOoh that first one sounds a bit scary but good! Thanks for your recommendations!
ReplyDeleteVery different sounding books Carla. Thanks for the reviews.
ReplyDeleteThis book looks like you would really enjoy it. You love the hiking and wilderness. What a great testament to survival. Happy Wednesday.

So glad you like BWCA book. I Loved it. Boundary waters sounds like a busy place compared to social distancing right now!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are finding time to read and that you enjoyed both of these books.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure they did the second one on Chapter a Day on WPR - I remember hearing a couple of chapters. I enjoyed the bits I heard!
ReplyDeleteIf I still remember when the library opens up again, I'll have to check out the first one. We also have friends who've been to the Boundary Waters and highly recommend it.
Your review mkes me want to read these books, and I'm not much of reader; can't sit still long enough. :) But I am going to look for these two, and read them.
ReplyDeleteThey both sound like great books! When my sister and I still lived at home, we took many family vacations in the Boundary Waters, so I have great memories of visiting there and will have to look for this book. I know you would enjoy visiting there immensely.
ReplyDeleteThey both sound like really great books to read! I enjoy true stories, and the idea of opening a bookstore sounds really intriguing for sure! Many blessings to you :)
ReplyDeleteI loved The Readers of Broken Wheel as well. I'll look for the other one.
