Wow. This book was a sucker-punch to the gut by the end, but such a poignant and important read. I appreciated the mix of the author’s personal voice on more fact-based pieces interspersed throughout the book and I loved the large cast of characters. Tommy Orange did a wonderful job weaving together the lives of so many in a believable and riveting way. I highly recommend this book, but prepare to be devastated by the end.
