I Am Still Alive by Kate Alice Marshall
3.0
I came to this book from a LibraryAware YA recommendation list of titles like Yellowjacket. While there are no sports team or cannibalism, this did have a survival scenario that viewers might enjoy.
I liked this and would read this author again- in fact the books that came out after this one look like they get better and better.
This is the female version of Hatchet. And the survival stakes feel very believable. And, if not for the ending, I would have rated this one start higher. (No spoilers sweetie ;) ) I found the main characters shift in goals compelling, and the narrator deserves a ton of credit. I’m looking forward to following this narrator across Marshall’s other books.
