This is a story of human resilience and how complex the human brain is.
I read this book in a couple of days (which is very quick for me), skipping some parts that are just too much to read (i.e. Alana's story)
I feel a bit conflicted about this book. Yes, their stories are important. I do wish the people in the story the best of life. But I don't think I will recommend this book to anyone I know.
