This is a book that will stick with me. The writing is beautiful and reflective, I had to pause many times to process things and think about what the author said. I found myself researching different aspects of the book to learn more. It was extremely emotional as well and heartbreaking. I love how the book shed light on the importance of reading and education, but also tackled numerous difficult subjects of racism, sexual assault, and starvation.
