Longtime readers have come to understand that Outside's true gift is in chronicling misadventure. The Darkest Places chronicles mysterious disappearances, unsolved murders, and deadly disasters, taking us to far-flung places no sane person would want to go.

Unsolved Mysteries, True Crimes, and Harrowing Disasters in the Wild

The Darkest Places

Rachel Schommer

I want to start by saying I found the writing on 90% of these articles to be fantastic, however this is not the type of book I typically find engrossing. Interesting, yes, but not engrossing, which means I really had to fight to finish it. I am a procrastinator who loves a deadline so when I set "end of year" as my finish goal I really buckled down. One thing I did appreciate is hearing about true crime stories that aren't widely talked about and done over and over again in podcasts, etc. 


If I'm being honest, the 3 stars are more about me than they are about the book. I'm working on getting some variety in my reading list and unfortunately that means I'm not going to be all-in crazy about every book I read.
