Describe a part of the book that made you feel something strongly (i.e. something that made you cry, laugh, get really angry, etc.).
Endurance is a book about Scott Kelly, a astronaut that went to the international space station as well as quite a few space shuttle missions. One even on Christmas.
The book starts kinda at the end because it describes his struggle coming back to earth after being in space for one year. It talks about the journey just to his bed. I don't like how in the middle of the book Scott starts talking about his training in Russia and stuff because I feel that he should have started with that.
What made me really sad is when he talked about how his identical brothers wife (Gabrielle Giffords) was shot in Tucson, Arizona in the head, luckily she survived, but the gunman killed a nine year old girl born on September, 11, 2001.
Overall the book was pretty great i would definitely recommend it to someone else.
So, i was thinking "this is great i dont need to add what else" but then i was like wait no, because scott kelly once had a tweet conversation with barrack obama
