what a rollercoaster. like a love letter to the alaskan wildness alongside a harrowing depiction of domestic abuse. i loved the dichotomy and i can't believe how quickly 500+ pages went. i do feel like young leni was pretty unrealistic with regards to her body as a 13yo (idk any women who at 13 were "just wishing their boobs would come in" but i guess i wasn't around in the 70s to see if 13yo's acted that way back then). the love story was also a bit too close to twilight to take it as seriously as it deserved? i still got choked up at the end though!

Loved this book from start to finish, couldn't put it down. The description of the Alaskan wilderness makes you feel as if you are there. Totally mesmerising, can't wait to read Kristin Hannah's other books.
