This was a great book, but it was so difficult to read. This book needs nearly every single trigger warning I've ever seen so please check the warnings if you have topics that you're sensitive to. Overall, it was a compelling story about the state of the foster care system, the reality of living in small town America, and the impact of the opioid epidemic on these populations. It was hard to get through but it's also hopeful and leaves you feeling like things can improve.
