What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have varied but overall positive opinions about the book. Many praise the author's exceptional writing and the compelling narrative, particularly drawing parallels to Dickens' "David Copperfield." The book's unflinching portrayal of the opioid crisis and foster care abuse in rural Appalachia is seen as both poignant and brutal, with a powerful, resonant voice from the main character. Some found the pacing slow and the content heavy, but others celebrated its emotional depth and complexity, considering it a future classic and highly recommending it despite its somber themes. Overall, readers were impressed with the character development and the vivid, heartbreaking depiction of societal issues.
