rachelvogus's review against another edition

adventurous emotional inspiring sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Imagine so many classics rolled into one: Black Beauty, Old Yeller, Hatchet, and the  Incredible Journey all rolled into one. Then imagine that there are still new and beautiful things to say about family, connection, growing up, surviving, letting go. And then, go read Pax.
