The Great Alone

It is 1974 when Leni Allbright's impulsive father Ernt decides the family is moving to Alaska. But the Alaskan winter is just as unforgiving as Ernt, and life quickly becomes a struggle for survival.

This was such a great book, so well written. I stayed up late last night to finish it. I love books that move me and following the life of Leni and her parents. This story tugged at my heart. One of the things I loved is how Alaska was like another character in the book. It was both beautiful and threatening. This is the second book from this author I’ve read and I can’t wait to read some more of her books.
