⭐️3.75/5
Five years late to the craze for this book, but I can see why it was popular. Easy to read while dealing with big subjects such as grief, trauma, and our world‘s strange obsession with tragedy. Tear jerking, thoughtful, and not utterly sad, this was a good read. Needs TW when recommending but I‘ll read more of her work!

ErikasMindfulShelf I liked the show better than the book. 3mo

Loved this book. It is story about survival, love and how together we are stronger. A lot of depth. It might be time for a reread.

This book has some flaws but overall it is decent. I didn't like that we are told right away that Avery and Colin get rescued from the plane crash. It took away from the suspense and urgency when the author was talking about them being stranded. Some of the flashbacks got confusing too.

This was a really powerful and mostly sad book about a boy who is the lone survivor of a plane crash and his life after dealing with this trauma. It is written in alternating timelines of during the flight and after and it incorporates stories of the people on the plane and Edward‘s life after. It was really well written and interesting to read the varying viewpoints. This is definitely a book that will be hard to forget.

This book is in two parts; the first tells the story of the 1972 Andean plane crash, which the author survived and then trekked across the mountains for help.

The second part is about how the doctor used his experience, alongside pioneering discoveries, to treat unborn and very young babies with heart conditions.

I‘m using this for #Uruguay for #readingtheamericas23, as that is where the doctor is from; it would work for #Argentina too.

Librarybelle I bet this was a tough read! 2y
squirrelbrain It was tough but in a different way to what I expected @Librarybelle. Parts of the story were told by Canessa‘s parents and girlfriend, with the second half including testimonies from the parents of the children he treated, so all quite emotional. 2y
