    This book transported me to the Himalayas! I could almost smell the flowers and feel the crisp mountain air.

    The book was alright, but didn’t quite capture my attention. It felt somewhat outdated and slow-paced for me.

    The book dragged in places, but the overall story of exploration and discovery was worth it.

    It was fine, but not great. I expected more based on other reviews. A bit slow and too descriptive.
