The Mountain Story by Lori Lansens is a novel about 4 broken people who get lost on a Mountain in Southern California for 5 days and not all of them make it out alive. Told years later by a Father to his son, it’s a harrowing tale of survival and bravery, family and friendship.

I didn’t really enjoy the book as I kept waiting for the inevitable bad things to happen. However, it was well written, and if you like these kinds of books, then it is a good read.
