Absolutely loved this book. It was gritty and tender, hopeless and hopeful all at the same time. I honestly don’t even have the words to describe the way that this book pulled me in and made me feel so familiar with a region I have never been to (Appalachia). Everyone should read this book. I don’t do star ratings any more but this one deserves all the stars!
