A review by amylynnreads
Following Atticus by Tom Ryan
3.0
Endearing, well told, but repetitive at times
This story is told with warmth and came about as a result of facing fears head on. I love the insights shared that were discovered across miles of beautiful, cold, and (at times) treacherous trails. The story was heart-warming and often captivating. I gave the book four stars instead of five because there was a period in the book (somewhere in the middle) where I grew tired of reading about another cold hike with Atticus. The stories felt similar and repetitive and I lost interest in the book for awhile. I, however, came back to finish it and was glad that I did. The storyline did continue to evolve, my interest was renewed, and I was drawn back into this endearing story and glad that I didn't give up on it. I felt that it was worth the read.
