Why read it?
1 author picked Saved as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Saved is a remarkable story of Benjamin Hall’s recovery after surviving a horrific injury in the middle of war.
Benjamin is a reporter I’d seen on the news many times, so when his book came out and there he was in pieces (prosthetic leg, prosthetic feet, and other injuries) I was curious as to how he’d made such a momentous recovery in so short a time. His story is full of raw, intense, and dangerous moments told more thrillingly than any book of fiction.
