The Oregon Trail is laced with soo many dangers, it's a miracle anyone made it to the West Coast! This story not only discusses the dangers, but also highlights poor choices, terrors, stubborn pride, and true love and friendship! A story of God's grace and mercy, and a very realistic tale. I loved it, but, there are definitely parts hard to read about!

I have never read a book like this! It was emotional, unpredictable, full of God's faithfulness, yet full of tragedies! It was beautifully written, and inspiring! I especially loved Effie's suggestions for getting them out of the red!

Lots of roller coasters in this story. Love, hate, danger, calm, joy, fear, but it's also a story full of God's grace and mercy, second chances, and love worth living for! A great way to wrap up this anthology.
