[pct-l] Oprah and low snow provide a record year?

[dicentra]

FWIW I read it because it is a book that deals with the PCT not because it was an Oprah book.   I'll read ANYTHING that deals with long distance hiking (and there are some serious stinkers to be read.)  This one gets a "meh" from me.

Hmm I don't watch Oprah, heard about the book on NPR. I heard about the PCT about 5 years before the book came out.

As for in general ironically the majority of Oprah's books are "old"- around for years, or won Pulitzer prize and have Oprah sticker on them. I'm not sure if this is her way of educating the masses or if she gets some kind of profit? 
I read a lot, probably 2-3 books a week if not more and it's not like Wild is some masterpiece but it's not a bad book.

Idk where prostitute came from?
