Tisha: The Story of a Young Teacher in the Alaska Wilderness by Robert Specht
5.0
So I chose this book for the final in my English concurrent class, if only because my teacher sold it so well. Not only that, but the other book I wanted to read had been stolen by the first class. *grumbles* But anyway.
This book was worth it. I had to fight in order to get it, as it was between this book an "Touching the Void" by Joe Simpson - it REFUSE to read mountain climbing books. >_>
So this book deals with love and segregation - those are books I always feel a tug to, though I have no true understanding of why. Although it had a slow beginning, and I was thinking to myself, "Oh dear, how will I ever finish this in a week?" once the school started, it picked up way fast, and I was freaking pleased.
I thought the ending epilogue ruined the whole story though. :\
But all in all, it's a heartwarming good read, and it's honestly a quick one, too - you'll be surprised at how fast it goes once you hit the good stuff. That's for sure. :)
