  1. What did you end of thinking of Hidden Valley Road? I've never heard of Lopez Lomong's book. I added it to my list, it sounds so interesting!

    1. You definitely need to read the Lopez Lomong book! A few months after I read it, I also met one of the Lost Boys of Sudan at work, and it was so cool to hear similar stories from him.

      The end of Hidden Valley Road was my least favorite part, but so often goes with nonfiction. Still a book worth reading though!
