Helpful Score: 1

While a riveting story, carefully told, and full of considerate neighbors and magnificent scenery, this is probably not the book to read if you are considering moving to Alaska for good. The grim reality of the Alaskan wilderness is that if you're not prepared, really prepared, you could die out there. As the story unfolds, you realize that everyone is not getting out of there alive The ending was somewhat a tad too charming, but I feel like it gives you an prudent idea of Alaskan wilderness and of the scourge of those unfortunate to have a mental illness, not to mention the shamefulness of the laws that hindered women from being beaten by their husbands.
