[REVIEW] The Great Alone

The Great AloneThe Great Alone by Kristin Hannah
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holy Guacamole...
What this book does so well is to describe the decay of Leni's father mental health with the reduction of sun light... It also shows how difficult it is to live in extreme weather, but humans are amazing creatures and adapt...
Respect for Alaska, honestly. By reading this book I felt like a city girl (which I am), screaming at the smallest spider (which I also do) and completely unable to adapt and survive in temperatures below -10C (also true).
I am curious now, is it possible for anyone in Alaska to be vegetarian?

[REVIEW] Rich Dad, Poor Dad

Rich Dad Poor Dad: What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money - That The Poor And Middle Class Do Not!Rich Dad Poor Dad: What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money - That The Poor And Middle Class Do Not! by Robert T. Kiyosaki
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked it, the message opens up a few "windows" and lets you understand that mindset and drive are key for success.
But if the neoliberalism typical of some Americans irritates you, skip this one --> it's all me, me, me at all costs.
Also, not the best language ever, but the topic is not literary fiction or poetry, so don't expect more than a coffee table talk.
