Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home by Nando Parrado, Vince Rause

adventurous challenging emotional hopeful informative reflective fast-paced

5.0

I don't typically rate memoirs/biographies because it seems wrong to judge the way in which people recount their own personal, real life stories. However, Nando Parrado is such an incredible writer that I personally have to rate this five stars, not for the content but for the way that this book is written. There were so many instances throughout reading Miracle in the Andes that had me viscerally reacting and not just the moments of pain or horror. In the pages you can feel the resilience and the pure love that radiates from Parrado.
