This books was a quick read (always a plus for me), but also really was an interesting story! The story definitely stemmed from Michael's experience during 9/11 but he had a lot more to say about how he has adapted to being blind, the struggles (and he didn't let anything stop him), and the progress or lack of making the world accessible to the blind. I really enjoyed this read and enjoyed it being a true story and the way it was written. I also admire what the author has done and has gone on to do in his life.
