This book tore my heart apart and then reput it back togeather again, repeatedly. I probably cried while reading  the entire last 10% of the book. Everything about this book felt so true to life, especially the interpersonal relationships and family dynamics that occurred. You could feel the beauty and horror of Alaska seep through every page. This will be a 10/10 recommend from me.
