Gratitude in Motion

68/100
πŸ‘Ž Skip It

Colleen Kelly Alexander's survival story, from a coma through twenty-nine surgeries to competing in triathlons again, is raw and genuinely moving, and it closes by turning her gratitude into a real call to action for readers. It's strong, but the injury detail is intense enough that it's really for older teens and up, and no major trade review has weighed in to confirm the reception beyond reader praise.
