✒️ BOOK REVIEW 📖
Mad Honey - Jodi Picoult & Jennifer Finney Boylan
"If you want to understand something, you first need to accept the fact of your own ignorance. And then, you need to talk to people who know more than you do, people who have not just thought about the facts, but lived them."
Phew. What a trip. This one was such an emotional read from the start. There are a ton of triggers right off the bat. I found myself crying MANY times while reading. I felt for Olivia. Although I still feel like there weren't enough consequences for other characters? Idk. I felt very conflicted at the end of this one.
I did enjoy it overall, and felt excited to continue reading. At times I did feel like it drug on a bit.
