I wasn't sure if I would be able to read this book, since I have fear of flying. We had some pretty bad turbulences back in 2010 and I have been on a plane only once after that. But do not worry, there is nothing to fear in my opinion.
The book is beautifully written and it was a pleasure to follow Edward on his journey after the crash. I also enjoyed the chapters introducing characters who were also on the plane. Everyone seemed like a realistic person you can eventually meet at some point in your life. Everyone had their own little story to tell.
My favourite moments of the book were meeting Gary in the parking lot and the end of part 2. Those moments really got me.
Overall it was an amazing read and I'm pretty sure I will keep the story in my mind for quite some time. It was a beautiful story and yet so sad and I can't recommend enough to give this book a go!
