Anyone read the book or going to see the movie? Just curious as to what yous all thought. Personally, I'm obsessed with it...if you haven't read the book, I suggest it. Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer.

(This may be in the wrong forum, so if so...mods feel free to move. There's so many freakin' sub-categories I can never figure out which belongs to which.)Quote:
Into the Wild is the story of Christopher McCandless, who grew up in a wealthy suburb of Washington, D.C., Annandale, VA and died, aged 24, in a wilderness area of the state of Alaska. After graduating during 1990 from Emory University, McCandless changed his name, ceased communicating with his family, gave away his savings of $24,000 to OXFAM and began traveling, later abandoning his car and burning all the money in his wallet.
