About this listen

The world had teeth and it could bite you with them anytime it wanted. Trisha McFarland discovered this when she was nine years old. Trying not to be terrified. Trying not to think that sometimes when people got lost in the woods they got seriously hurt. Sometimes they died. And all because she needed to pee.

This is the story of a girl who gets lost on an outing in the Northeast woods. In her panic to get back on the track, she takes turnings which lead her deeper and deeper into the terrifying woods. With only a small amount of food and water in her knapsack, she begins to give up hope of ever getting out. Alive. The only thing that keeps her going is her Walkman on which she listens avidly to Red Sox baseball games, creating an imaginary friendship with her hero Tom Gordon. And as she struggles for survival and a way out, she realises she's not alone. There's something else in the woods, and it's watching her.

I really enjoyed this book, I loved the story. I loved Trisha, I loved her spirit and her determination. I would have curled up into a ball and cried instead of half the stuff that girl did at her age. I never watched a baseball game in my life so some references flew straight past my head but I still managed to figure out what was going on.

I did however dislike the music inbetween chapters, I've never had thos in an audiobook before and it threw me off everytime.
