I wasn’t quite sure what was happening or what was going to happen with this one. It’s told in the first person, and so we see everything through the eyes of Marie (I didn’t even seem to catch her name for the first couple of staves/ instalments). It was described as a thriller, but it seemed a bit ‘domestic drama’ to me. Don’t get me wrong, that’s not a bad thing if that’s what you enjoy, but I don’t think it’s for me. It took a bit of time to get to the crux of the story. It was all a bit long-winded, and I have to admit that I didn’t really enjoy my daily reading session with this one. There are plenty of people who did enjoy it though, so I think it just wasn’t to my taste.

Many thanks to the Pigeonhole for the opportunity to read this.

We Named The Dog Indiana
The Call of The Wild- The movie has intresting CGI, which mean all of animals and the adventure is CGI and you can tell. Some of CGI is good, the other CGI is bad. But it is Harrison Ford with a dog so thats cool. Just wish the dog was named Indiana. Would of made this movie better, but Buck is cool.

The plot: Buck is a big-hearted dog whose blissful domestic life gets turned upside down when he is suddenly uprooted from his California home and transplanted to the exotic wilds of the Alaskan Yukon in the 1890s. As the newest rookie on a mail-delivery dog sled team, Buck experiences the adventure of a lifetime as he ultimately finds his true place in the world.

A unique adventure about a dog adventure and journey. Its fun, entertaining and overall a good adventure.
