I've been a little distracted lately and haven't finished a book in a while. I did manage to finish Ordinary Wolves, by Seth Kantner.
I really liked this book's descriptions of being outside. There are very few books for me that capture what it's really like to be outside. That feeling is found throughout this book and it all rings very true. It paints a wonderful picture of what it feels like to be truly connected to the land and it manages to avoid over-romanticizing it.
The book also was a great portrait of what it feels like to be an outsider.
Reading a book like this really makes me want to spend more time in the wilderness and be more connected to the wild.
If you have ever felt at home outside, you might enjoy this book.
