Listen. I know--I KNOW--that Bo was a wild dog and wouldn't have been able to live and be happy in civilization. BUT that doesn't mean I'm not devastated that he didn't survive. That scene of the ghost Jess and Bo disappearing into the wild together *sobs*.

This story just solidifies for me that if I were put into this situation I would die immediately, no doubt.

Very good book!

It seemed unrealistic and was slow.

Apparently if you hurt me emotionally, I give you five stars.

I think I now understand the rating on this book. Definitely not my favorite Kate Alice Marshall book. And I probably should have read the trigger warnings/they weren't specific enough to cover what I needed.

A death of a pet is worse for me than hunting animals to stay alive this book has both.
