This took me a while to read, but I really enjoyed this book about the first five women who climbed K2. I just can‘t imagine the dedication it would take to risk your life like that. #NonFictionNovember

I‘ve been reading this interesting book about K2, the second highest mountain in the world. Today I learned that as of 2004 only five women had reached the summit, and as of today all are dead. 🏔 #TIL #NonfictionNovember
