13 Gripping Memoirs by Women Who Overcame The Impossible

Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Readers fell in love with Cheryl Strayed’s lovely and lyrical prose in this best-seller about finding healing when you’re out on your own—like really on your own. Strayed’s best-seller recounts her months on a solo hike on the Pacific Northwest Trail. She comes to terms with a past filled with the wrong men and other choices she’d rather forget. Most of all, her epic hike allows her the time and space to grieve the loss of her beloved mother who passed way too young. A nature trail provides the path for what becomes an incredible journey. (You’ll also love these novels featuring the strongest fictional female characters of all time.)
