This book was incredibly sad & heartbreaking, which I expected since I knew before what it was about. It’s a true story but I’m still unsure if the movie The Impossible is based on this family’s story or another one. Either way, this book was interesting since it told the story of the actual tsunami as well as what life was like for the author in the years following.
