Wow, oh wow. This book is intense, but oh so necessary to read. I personally didn’t know anything about the shooting at Kent State in 1970 so this was thought provoking and informative. I especially liked the multiple narrators in the audiobook which helped me to follow along with the different perspectives that are woven together to tell the story.
