4.0

the book was very informative and had plenty of twists and turns. the writing is very vivid. this book shed a lot of light on the real willowbrook state school. i didn’t even know it was a thing until i researched it. i think watching the actual news story (30min on youtube) made me more involved in the story to create the imagery needed to really understand. i just wish the ending wasn’t so phony (in my opinion) and this book could have also been a few pages shorter than it was.
