John Greene is storyteller. It does not matter if it is a gripping piece of fiction or a thoughtful, well-informed nonfiction. He writes with a vulnerability that allows you to learn about a topic that, in my case, you were completely unaware of. He clearly and sensitively delivers information while not shying away from direct call out of the very prevalent issues of race, class, and capitalism. A captivating read.

(PS Greene narrates the audiobook, how I read the book, and it added another dimension to the book for me. Would recommend)
