A House in the Sky

I loved (most of...) this book and can't believe I hadn't read it earlier.

A Canadian woman set out to be a world adventurer preferring war-torn countries. When she ventured into Somalia with a friend she'd convinced to go with her, she had gone to one country too far. It would not be a spoiler to assume she survives her ordeal, as she had to write it, but it felt unlikely throughout the pages.

I would have liked to give this 3.5 stars. There was one piece missing at the end. It is hard to put a finger on it, but I think it was a personal growth I'd hoped she'd acknowledge. I found it hard to connect to the narrator at times.

Still, definitely worth reading.
