I found this book very inspirational. I think it is great for anyone in or approaching a major crossroads in their life. I read this book right before my last year of college and it has stuck with me as I have tried to navigate my last year of school and my post grad life. Some people think Cheryl Strayed is self indulgent and talks about herself too much, but I disagree. I think her stories are powerful and full of truth that is sometimes hard to stomach.
