I liked it a lot, but after the climax (around chapter 26-28) I found it pretty boring.

Toby has to finish the final thing on The List.
It's a list of brave, daring, totally awesome things that he and his best friend, Lucas, planned to do together, and the only item left is to hike the Appalachian Trail. But now Lucas isn't there to do it with him.
Toby's determined to hike the trail alone and fulfill their pact, which means dealing with the little things -- the blisters, the heat, the hunger -- and the big things -- the bears, the loneliness, and the memories.
When a storm comes, Toby finds himself tangled up in someone else's mess: Two boys desperately need his help. But does Toby have any help to give?

Looks interesting. Even though I never read it before.
The book the Trail was one of the best books i have ever read. I love how Toby connects with his dog he found. I gave me the chills in the very end of the book when Toby risked his life just to keep moose. I love story's like that. And I also love how Toby was so determent to finish the list just so that he could do it for his friend who passed. That just warmed my heart. I think everyone should read this book at one point in there life. I give it a 5 out of 5.
I thought this was a great book! The only reason I wouldn't rate it 5/5 stars is because she didn't use contractions very well and some sentances were not full sentances.
It was good. Overall good but had a weird/long beginning. If you like adventure than I would recommend it for you.
