Lone Survivor

While on vacation, I picked up my husband’s copy of Lone Survivor.
It isn’t my typical fluffy chick lit mystery, but I’m always a sucker
for a true story. This is the eye-witness account of Marcus Luttrell,
Navy SEAL, and the only surviving member of Operation Redwing — a
mission to capture or kill a key al Qaeda leader in the wilds of
Afghanistan in 2005.

I’m here to tell you, this story sucked me in and wouldn’t let go. I
read it in two days and sat up the second night until well after
midnight because I couldn’t go to bed until I finished it.  Read more.
