The book pulled at my heartstrings and I especially enjoyed the chapters on earlier history! I did think it was repetitive at times, but it was short enough to avoid feeling dragged out.

I got a little teary a few times (combined with pms but still)
I also liked how this book did that thing where it feels like some secret undercurrent in the world is being revealed. How there are all these systems and powers at play that affect everything (human, animal, environment) and they can be so invisible until you start questioning things and pulling at threads and discovering connections. Like people not being able to afford life saving medication because filthy rich corporations want to keep getting richer. It’s terrifying finding out that these things are literally happening in our world.

When people ask "is everything really about racism?" or "is everything really about capitalism?" yes. yes it is.
