Book Reviews of Alive

Book Review: Fascinating
Summary: 5 Stars

I caught the end tail of the documentary of this story on the history channel which made me want to read the book. I was amazed and could not believe that those people had the strength and will to live as they did and do what they had to do to survive. It takes certain people to make it through those elimiments. True and fascinating story!

Great book, well written you feel you are there and know each person and are experiencing the moment with them all.

Book Review: Got me through my deployment...
Summary: 5 Stars

This story was even better than the movie, and the movies was great. I have read this book a few times now. I love the rawness of it. I would recommend it to anyone ready to face the bitter truth of what it takes to survive in horrible conditions. I read this while I was deployed in Afghanistan and I realized if these people could survive that then I would be just fine!

Book Review: FAVORITE BOOK EVER
Summary: 5 Stars

I absolutely love this book. I have read several survival stories and this is by far my favorite. It is a most inspiring story and I love the way it's written. I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone. I read this book for the 1st time about 7 years ago. On average, I pick it up once a year and re-read to remind me that miracles do happen.

Book Review: Phenomenal story of survival
Summary: 5 Stars

If you enjoy stories of survival, you'll certainly enjoy this one. The details of what the crash survivors did is no secret, but reading the intimate details about their challenges was at times, gut wrenching.

Definitely not a page turner, in my opinion. But a fantastic read that will keep your interest throughout.

Book Review: One of the greatest survival stories ever told
Summary: 5 Stars

Wow. Everytime I thought that this story could not get any more incredible, it did. Everytime I thought that the harshness of their plight couldn't get worse, it did. I couldn't put this book down. Then I talked to all my friends about it. It was that good.
