I hate to bag out hot chick climbers, but that book was second only to Cadel Evans' book in the tedious writing stakes. Writing is not one of her talents, but really, Cadel's one was truly painful reading. And he had a ghost writer to help him.

Shit writing always makes the next book better. I read that book during my lunches after reading the herald sun and chockstone all morning. Was like EM Forster then, ;)

Seriously, it aint that bad a book.

It's like a long climbin mag.

I should have reassured Rudi that someone would come along and disagree with me shortly. That's almost guaranteed to happen around here.

Dan, you should try Cadel's book. Let me know if the Herald Scum is preferable.

Your really sellin it to me Wendy.

I can hear his voice already, and it's enough!

Cadel Evans is a pained communicator, I'll give u that.

Sounds like these (unread) books were received as great gifts from climbing buddies.

Hope the givers of these great gifts aren't on chockstone.

I found Lynn's book an interesting read, and so did some others apparently...
