The Alaskan Laundry by Brendan Jones

5.0

As a fan of Alaska reality television shows (especially The Deadliest Catch) I was eager to read this advanced reader's copy from Netgalley about a woman who comes to Alaska to escape her tormented old life and find herself. A cousin sets her up with a job at fish processor but she has to scramble to eke out accommodations. As expected, Alaska life is rugged and harsh and filled with a cast of eccentrics. This is a terrific book about a young woman's personal journey in search of self acceptance.
