    Alaska

    1464 days ago

    A good read, though long. I started this a month+ ago, I pulled it off the shelf looking for something to read for the car ride to montana and back. Got 700 pages into it then; but just couldn’t quite finish the last 400. Interesting fictional look at Alaska (but based off real history), somewhere I really want to go.

    While reading it, a prof at my school managed to take a trip there, and I felt great injustice sitting around reading about it as he put up his photos.
