This was a hard read. I felt so beat down by the middle I had to put it down for while. The end helped weave together a lot of the loose ends and questions, but the jump 7 years into the future was a little disorienting after being SO in each moment up until then.
It was really powerful to read this, especially the second half about the student and veteran protests, while watching a similar state violence unfold against student protests against Palestinian genocide in the US this week.
