A review by _sarah_reads_
The Serpent King by Jeff Zentner

4.0

Loved it. Loved it so much.

I mean, there were rough parts, emotionally demanding parts. I cried, I guffawed ("Crackers Barrel!" Lol--shout out to my west wing comrades...cause it's the plural of Cracker Barrel...like, attorneys general...nvm).

If I were a less sleep-deprived person AND I'd started this on a weekend night, I would not have been able to put it down.

Lydia, Travis, Dill--I would have been your friend in high school, if you'd have had me.

This book had me thinking about how much damage parents are capable of inflicting, and how resilient children of a$$hat parents can be.
