The Overstory by Richard Powers
challenging
hopeful
informative
slow-paced
3.75
Really liked all the tree imagery, very atmospheric.
The way that Powers writes about disabled people is atrocious. Also, I was uncomfortable with what he chose to focus on in regards to the female main characters - a lot of infuriating choices made on his part.
