After graduating from college, Jennifer isn't sure what she wants to do with her life. She is drawn to the Appalachian Trail, a 2,175-mile footpath that stretches from Georgia to Maine. Though her friends and family think she's crazy, she sets out alone to hike the trail, hoping it will give her time to think about what she wants to do next. The next four months are the most physically and emotionally challenging of her life. She quickly discovers that thru-hiking is harder than she had imagined: coping with blisters and aching shoulders from the 30-pound pack she carries; sleeping on the hard wooden floors of trail shelters; hiking through endless torrents of rain and even a blizzard.

With every step she takes, Jennifer transitions from an over-confident college graduate to a student of the trail, braving situations she never imagined before her thru-hike. The trail is full of unexpected kindness, generosity, and humor. And when tragedy strikes, she learns that she can depend on other people to help her in times of need.

It’s hard to imagine so many odd things can happen to one person while hiking the AT. Many young women may have given up but Odyssa didn’t. She pushed on despite the hardships. It’s great to hear her tell this story.

Her story, her voice

This book stays with me as few others have. The open-road search for a Self that began with engagement in the natural world turned and twisted and broke my heart as the author’s journey unfolded. Beautifully read by the author.

Omg where to start. She is a great writer and reader. She makes you want to go take a hike! Even if you are not a huge hiker this is a great read.

Overall, I going Jennifer's story of her thru hike to be interesting and informative. Looking at other reviews, she gets some flack for sounding judgmental and I did react a little to her comments about people above the Mason Dixon line which seemed to imply none are Christians (which made me laugh). That aside, I thought her story was an interesting one. Personally, I love hiking and wish I could drop everything for a few months and hike the AT, but for now I live vicariously through the stories if others!

enjoyable perspective of thru hiking the AT

I put aside myself to become what others expected. I’m now in my 40’s feeling the call of the AT and probably the call to come back to myself. This book hit home in so many ways and I truly made and emotional connection to so much of what the author conveyed. I may not get to through hike at this point in my life. But I know that the trail is calling and even if it’s in sections has lessons for me to still learn. Thank you for sharing your journey and the brutal honesty of everything that was part of it.

Thank you

Jennifer does a wonderful job in this book of communicating her travels in such a way you feel as if you were there too. An excellent read that makes me want to pack my backpack and head for the hills.

was fun to listen and learn about her hiking trip.
I laughed out loud and was saddened to tears along this journey she shared.
would have liked to have learned a bit more about the right things to do and take on a trip like this, but I get the idea from her journey.
thank you

inspiring story

A young Jennifer graduates from college and sets off on a solo hike on the AP. A true story of finding yourself, overcoming obstacles and having the courage to do something so many people are brave enough to tackle. Well written and well narrated.

What a fabulous book!
