Ruthless River: Love and Survival by Raft on the Amazon's Relentless Madre de Dios by Holly Conklin FitzGerald

4.0

I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was not good. I recommend this book if its a paperback! A privileged white woman and her husband think they can ride the Madre de Dios river 40 miles on a raft they built on their own...guess what happens?
Maybe it was the narrator making Holly sound shrill, but it was satisfying to hear about them eating slimy things out of the opaque river while reminiscing about lobster dinners. I had no sympathy for them.
