A Walk from the Wild Edge – Jake Tyler
£4.10
“This book has changed lives.” – Chris Evans
Why I Love It:
This book completely stole my heart. Jake writes with raw honesty about his struggles with mental health, alcohol, and the darker chapters of his life — but what shines through is his deep love for walking, his beautiful bond with his mum, and his faith in the goodness of people.
If you’ve ever walked the West Highland Way or tackled the South West Coast Path, his vivid descriptions will take you right back there (they did for me!). It’s real, moving, and a wonderful reminder that sometimes the best therapy is a long walk outdoors. Highly recommended for those who love a good walk — and an even better story. 🥾❤️🌿
