Publisher's summary

A true story....

A harrowing plane crash took the lives of two people and plunged 16-year-old Autumn Veatch into the middle of the rugged Cascade Mountains. Injured, alone, and lost, she defies all odds to make it out alive.

This short story is a true account of a brave young woman's survival. Not only was Autumn the sole survivor of the crash, but she then hiked for nearly three days through some of the most unforgiving terrain in the country.

Find out what it takes to be a survivor.

Ok

First no matter how good or bad the story was the narration was so fast that it was annoying to keep up. The story was sad and just a horrible thing to have survived but I wish she would have extended the story to include her rescue and her joining her loved ones again.

Too short

Should be a longer version. Ie. How they rescued the grandparents. Did they find the plane. Auto reunited w family. What actually caused crash. And though noone wants a lot of background info. It would be nice to get to know that characters a little more..
Just way too short... Also how she handles adjusting back ie.. School, aniexty

True Survival

This is a inspiring story of a young girl's struggle to survive. Despite witnessing horrific events, she manages to save her own life. She deserves respect and admiration for her inner strength.
