Absolutely Captivating
Reviewed: 06-30-22
The story was so raw and real. The way the narrator spoke and how he described things, also using different voices/accents for different characters, made me feel like I was literally right there with Perry in the jungle of Vietnam. I was completely captivated and hanging onto the edge of my seat the whole time as if I myself was there. Throughout the story, I was sent on a roller-coaster of every emotion you could feel, just as Perry and the men in his platoon were. The portrayal of the reality of the Vietnam War is completely authentic in this book. It doesn't get any better than that.
