Pretty good, but not great. Especially after coming off of reading BodyWorld, which was fantastic. It doesn't feel as long as it looks (about the thickness of a phone book), which is good. If you like the Squid and the Whale and Royal Tenenbaums, you might enjoy this.
Melodee, 12 years old, and David Kirkham are the only survivors in a plane crash. Their destination was meant to be Texas, but their surroundings suggest somewhere in Mexico. I got caught up in their struggle for survival. Melodee comes from a very active family--members of the LDS Church her father teaches seminary. She begins teaching "Uncle David" about Heavenly Father and persuades him to read her Book of Mormon. Events in the story became unbelievable, but David's testimony was very believable as all of ours can be.
