By chapter 5, I wanted to kill her!!!

Revisado: 07-28-24

I tried skipping ahead but it just got worse and worse. The writing was good and I enjoyed the first few chapters. Then it started going down hill, digging it's depressing man hating hole and never recovered. I gave up at chapter 6.and will try to return the book.

predictable and juvenile

Revisado: 04-20-23

I have read and enjoyed many books evolving, hiking, trecking survival, etc, and learned quite a bit, but somehow, this one missed the mark. I couldn't wait for it to end, but I was on a trip and didn't have access to anything else. Maybe it was the annoying main character who seemed much more like a 12 year old rather than a 20 something adult. The long ramblings of his "wise" oldr trail partner at EVERY TURN, became unbarable quickly. Maybe use this as forced punishment for a teen, on a long trip, but expect it to get tossed out the window! The facts about John Muir trail were interesting, but not enough to redeem this book.

interesting story, but

Revisado: 01-11-23

An Interisting story, but hard to form a bond with any of the many characters. There were too many story lines that felt predictable, and including race relations at every turn seemed forced and added nothing of substance to the story. The ending just seemed like an add-on for effect, which failed.
It didn't help that the narrator sounded like he was reading a childs story, then several of the NY accents and other amarican accents were just grating.
I loved several of Mrs. Brooks other books but was disappointed in this one.

Sepehr Haddad could be Jane Austin in male form!

Every line in this story flows like a heart felt love note. I am not a writer or a poet so my description can only fall short. Just read and savor for yourself.

interesting read

Revisado: 04-24-22

interesting story but the narrator's forced gravely voice was unnecessary and anoying. The children s unique personalities were the highlight of the story.

struggled to finish

Revisado: 04-14-22

to many characters with names that only a native from Korea could remember, most were to dull to want to remember. All but one ended up with unhappy lives , and that one dissappeared from the story as soon as things looked up for her. at least it did help put me to sleep.

A true love story.

Revisado: 09-03-20

This is a true love story / adventure between humans, the wildlife and their threatened home of Africa. You cannot help but fall in love with the land and each of the animals and of course Francois and her purserverance to continue their dream of a wildlife preserve, and rehabilitation center, after her dear husband Lawrence's passing. I wanted to jump on a plane and head directly for Tula Tula after finishing this book, maybe some day.

not my favorite but worth a listen

Revisado: 10-07-19

although this wasn't one of my favorite books the performance of Joe Morton made it well worth the listen. I think the dream feel of the story is what I did not like or quite understand.
