i don't want to be seen as a pretty thing;
it's the pretty things we're always breaking

into the wild

jon krakauer

why not read another krakauer? i enjoyed the first two, and this one as well, to a large extent. i’d have to say that i enjoyed into thin air and under the banner of heaven more than this one, but this was still worth a read. one of the nicest parts of reading short books is that you can read lots of them.
