Growing up in rural Appalachia, this book had been recommended to me by numerous people. And Kingsolver delivered. She is an absolutely amazing writer. I was fully drawn in by her prose. It's a slower-paced story that has a certain sad beauty to it that resonated well. I appreciated her commentary on the opioid epidemic in that area and how she made it very personal and humanizing. Overall, I found it a good, thought-provoking read that reminded me of home in the best and worst ways.
