This was a tough book to read but I love that Jodi tackles these controversial issues. Her books are great at showing you an issue from all sides and getting you to sympathize where you would think you would. I will move on to the next book in her list. Definitely worth reading!

Just finished this book and being from Kentucky, I found this very interesting. I‘m not specifically from the Appalachian region but have read about some of these problems plaguing that area. He also has an interesting take on the level of distrust of government from this region and how that seems to coincide with our current political climate. Great read!!
