Final Book Review

Into the wild
By: Jon Krakauer
Reviewed by: Max Gruenberg

This book is about 20 years old Chris McCandeless who goes out into the wild and with little food and plans to survive off the wilderness. The story takes place in Alaska 1996.Young Chris brings rice, a gun, and a few other materials. This book is about friendship and trust.
In the story Chris McCandeless hitchhikes around The United States and meats friends but before that he burns his belongings, leaves his car in the middle of nowhere and donates all his money for college to a hunger facility. Than he starts to live off the people and the land. The bad thing about Chris is that once he would befriend these kind people who would take him in and give him food, he would just leave. He couldn't trust anybody even though many people trusted him. He communicated little with his family and wanted to start his own life. Chris also didn't tell anyone his real name he just went by Alex Super tramp. While he was on his journey it lead him to Alaska. Chris liked to read semi realistic fiction novel's about being out in the wilderness. This provoked Chris to try to survive off the land. Chris didn't understand that the stories weren't real so he decided he was going to survive off the land in Alaska. To find out what happens to him in Alaska I'm not going to tell you, you're going to have to find out yourself by reading the book.
The writer of this book is Jon Krakauer a mountaineer and writer. He usually writes about the outdoors and mountain climbing. He is an American writer from Massachusetts. He was born in April 12 1954 and lives currently in Seattle Washington with his wife.
In my opinion the book was written nicely. It has a moderately high vocabulary level and it is very easy to visualize the book in your head while reading. The book is told from a standby characters point of view meaning they used quotes and interview to tell the story of Chris McCandeless. It seemed like he quoted everyone he was interviewing correctly and in order. I thought the book had a great plot and that it lead the reader into reading more. This is actually a real story that has not only been documented in a book, but also in a movie.
I think that the range of people reading this book should be 13+. I think it is sometimes hard to follow the time period of the book because they switch around a lot. Also it's sometimes hard to tell if there is switch in interviews.
I think this is a great book that should be read by eighth graders and up. This book has strong morals and an interesting, leading story line. Into the wild by Jon Krakauer. Reviewed by Max Gruenberg
