``This story of Suzanne journey with cancer and her journey with group of stranger who are also cancer suvivors to Nepal. I laughed out loud so many times reading her tell about her adventures and challenges personally and physically during this journey, I teared up when she shared her stories personal struggles and things she over came especially her inner battles with certain fears during her journey. I couldn't put the book down. I had known individuals that has joined this group on these treks to different parts of the countries as cancer suvivors/patients or care takers but not until now did I really get to be there right with them through this book and her experiences. I felt I was right on that mountain with Suzanne and experiencing it through her telling her story!``
``I could not put this book down! Suzanne Link had me laughing, crying, and simply feeling as if I were on the journey with her! She writes with such a sense of honesty and grit. To do what she did, and to be so honest about the feelings surrounding such a journey, makes this book one of the best I've read in a long time. She does not skimp on the details, nor does she sugar-coat how tough this journey was for her. Yet, the rewards reaped from conquering many of her fears is so evident in her writing and makes the reader cheer her on as she continues to develop more courage through each new adventure. I would give this book ten stars if they were available. Bravo, Suzanne, and congratulations on being a survivor, in more ways than one.``
``Sometimes you just need to feel inspired and this author did just that. I love how Suzanne took us on her journey with her, she will make you cry, laugh, and want to be standing on that mountain top right beside her. I loved the title, that's what caught my eye immediately- once you read the meaning behind the title it will pull at your heartstrings for sure. Thank you so much for sharing such an intimate part of your life with us, you truly are an inspiration to many!``
``A beautifully written story. I felt as if I were along for the journey. The descriptions of the far away exotic locations took me there right along with the author. Very uplifting, encouraging, and hilarious read! I recommend this for book clubs too. The author was kind enough to attend our book club and autograph our books! It even inspired me to look into participating in the next ABC trip!``
