I picked this book up because I am very fascinated by Aron Ralston's ordeal. Unfortunately, the book is a rambling mess of incoherent stories of Ralston's early adventures and only about every other chapter is about the actual ordeal that made him famous.So, not only am I totally bored and disinterested in this, it becomes obvious early on that Mr. Ralston has a history of making poor decisions and taking un-necessary risks in his travels.I still admire his fortitude in doing what he needed to to survive but he should stay away from writing.
