REVIEW: FINDING GOBI by Dion Leonard
Non-fiction , Review / March 25, 2018

Finding Gobi by Dion Leonard was a rewarding book to read. At first, it didn’t seem like a read for a grown up. After all, what could we possibly have in common? But, it turned out to be a real treat. This story was about not just finding a little dog lost in the Gobi Desert, but also a journey to finding oneself. Dion Leonard, an ultramarathon runner came across Gobi, a small stray dog in the Gobi desert. The little dog latched onto Dion no matter what during the 155-mile race. The terrain and race were grueling, but Gobi didn’t give up hope that she might one day be loved. Gobi changed Dion’s perception of the world and helped heal his past. Lovely descriptions throughout. Finding Gobi is a true story that warms one’s heart. ★★★★★ 5 Stars Thanks to #NetGalley for the review copy.
