I do not often give books five stars, but this one deserved it. This was a very comprehensive play by play of the events on September 11, 2001, mixed with terribly personal stories of some of those involved. The research that was conducted to write this book was especially well done. I learned a lot of facts that I had never known before reading this book, despite the fact that I have watched countless documentaries and footage from that day. I have read at least ten books on this subject. Above all, I watched this live on television while sitting in 8th Grade United States History class. When I got home, I was absolutely glued to the news for the rest of the night. I cannot believe how many facts I missed about this event. My sister got this book on Audible and was talking to me about it, and I realized I had the physical copy that I bought a couple of years ago. I started it yesterday, and spent all day finishing it. I had no idea that today was September 10. As of tomorrow, this horrible event will have taken place twenty one years ago. That is insane for me to think about. I cannot imagine how people that had connections to these people that died and survived still feel on these anniversaries. This book was absolutely worth the obsessive reading marathon I did to finish it. Deeply moving and informative.
