adventurous challenging dark sad tense medium-paced

3.0

Wow, this was definitely a thrilling read and very different from what I normally gravitate towards. It was also devastating. I can’t even begin to imagine what it is like to climb Everest and to have been on the mountain at this time, but reading this I kept being struck by how hopelessly pointless this is. So many people died or were injured beyond repair for what?
