Strong but simple, clear messaging inside an easy to read short story. Characters very well written, threat conveyed well and a breakneck pace. Great read, highly recommended.

It's shocking how even your most treasured relationship can hold you back from embracing your true self. While love feels amazing, the loss of a loved one can also come with a sense of freedom.

Also, the brutal winter of the north is the perfect setting for elicidate the cruelty of human nature

2 estrellas por el perro🤍 

I hope every single animal abuser dies a horrible death.
Este libro trata sobre la valentía y la determinación de sobrevivir, sobre cómo podemos encontrar el amor y la amistad en los lugares más inesperados, incluso en los más oscuros. Pero, siendo completamente honesta, dormir me pareció una actividad muchísimo más estimulante que leer esta historia.

It's a classic for a reason- thought provoking and heart wrenching. Jack London captures the true spirit of the wild and those who find themselves in it.
