Gone to the Woods: Surviving a Lost Childhood de Gary Paulsen

Wow. Growing up reading Hatchet every year for school, I knew a little of where Gary Paulsen came from (thanks to the 25th-anniversary edition). When I saw a chance to review this book, I jumped right on board.
The first thing that stuck out to me about Gone to the Woods was the writing style. It was quite similar to the one in Hatchet but it was a bit choppy due to fragmented sentences. This got old pretty quick considering the length of this book.
However, the story really drew me in. There was so much that Gary went through as a kid and it was quite moving.
I absolutely loved Gary's reaction of finishing his first book and the library.
This book is marketed as middle-grade, but I do not recommend it to middle-grade readers. It deals with a lot of difficult and mature topics (domestic violence, abuse, violence of war, mentions std's, drinking issues).
Rating: 3.5/5
Language: a**, d***, p***
Violence: see above
Romance: n/a
Spiritual: n/a

Hatchet: 30th Anniversary Edition de Gary Paulsen

I’ve lost track of how many times I have read this book over the past 11 years. I’d recommend that everyone read this book at least once in their life.

Worksong de Gary Paulsen

I think this is a precious time capsule....it was published in 2000.

Life was so, so different then. A year before 9/11. Before social media took over. I wonder what our work song would sound like now, 24 years later.
