Join Meredith, Lindsay, Ashley, Sarah and Kim as they discuss Saroo Brierley’s A Long Way Home. The girls learn (thanks to Lindsay’s research) that this book was actually written by a ghost writer and they are kind of relieved because no one really enjoyed the writing. Everyone really loves the story, but they all agree the writing wasn’t the best. Lindsay again helps with this issue by adding that this book was written in 3 months!
The girls discuss accents in different countries and how one can pick up the speaking style and mannerisms of the place they visit. There is interesting conversation around the landscape of the brain and how both it and the landscape of an environment may change over time. Meredith wraps up the experience of the story nicely by pointing out that even though a terrible thing happens in this story, many different people along the way help – There are good people in this world, there is good in the world. The girls also share thoughts and opinions on international adoptions. And, of course, everyone offers up whether they would recommend the book and/or the movie and which one they enjoyed more.
This book was made into a movie in 2016 called Lion and stars Dev Patel, Sunny Pawar, Nicole Kidman and Rooney Mara.
