Intriguing and also making me absolutely certain I am going to be real mad at these freaking men.

Since I wasn’t smart enough to do this I feel responsible for warning others: check the content notes from the author before reading. If you don’t have access to them here’s a list: wartime violence, religious abuse, depictions of complex trauma, suicidal ideation, self-harm, human experimentation, medical torture, eugenics, cannibalism, rape, S.A., allusion to necrophilia 🖤

Delicious, chef’s kiss

If there ever was a book that encapsulated the way of family when times are always tough and you still make a way, The Bean Trees may well be it.
