Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company That Addicted America by Beth Macy
informative
4.0
Super interesting information, detailed, and well researched. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of more is because there were times, especially in section 2, where I felt it dragged -- getting bogged down by more details than I personally found necessary and making it feel really slow. Overall I found it really informative and thoughtfully written.

Everyone should read this book. It is one of the best memoirs I've ever read (perhaps the best). Funny and honest and holding no punches, it explores really big topics in really direct and personal ways.

Interesting story with super important historical information about the insidiousness of the KKK and other far right extremist groups, but not especially well written.
