I do want to see the movie, but I also now how movies can ruin books and I am afraid of that happening. Those I have talked to though say it was well-done, so I suppose I will at some point. Maybe you can be my coach in getting these president books read! I started because I have read soooooo many books about Lincoln and Kennedy and Washington, and I would like to be well-rounded enough to at least know a few facts about each of them. I will be meandering around your blog shortly, happy reading!Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-80272993957820981172019-01-23T18:15:18.910-06:002019-01-23T18:15:18.910-06:00Oh goodness Laura, thank you so much! I felt when ...Oh goodness Laura, thank you so much! I felt when I was writing that my words were so inadequate because this is such a horrific reality for so many. I was also super emotional, because of my own babies who I constantly fear for being in a similar situation. I wish it had not taken me so long to read, I kept putting it off because I had so much non-fiction going on. It's such a beautiful, terrible book.Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-955885240603323342019-01-23T11:50:19.688-06:002019-01-23T11:50:19.688-06:00I was sent to your blog by Cyber Kitten at Seeking...I was sent to your blog by Cyber Kitten at Seeking a Little Truth. I think I have met my match! You read even more than I do. The Hate U Give was on my Top 25 Books for 2018. I have not seen the movie yet but it is in my Netflix queue. I also am reading the Presidents but only the ones from my lifetime. I started with Truman. Now I am on LBJ, the Robert Caro books. I have read 3 of them so far. I was trying to guess from your review here what is the city where you live. Anyway, I am now following you. My blog is called Keep the Wisdom. http://keepthewisdom.blogspot.com.

It's just so gorgeous and heartbreaking and TRUE. I think that's what's so perfect about this book. It exposes an awful, awful culture that we keep brushing off as small isolated incidents that don't represent the full problem. But this book makes it all so clear and I couldn't have loved it more if I tried. I immediately recommend this book to anybody who gets into a debate with me about this.<br /><br />Laura @BlueEyeBooksLaura @BlueEyeBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12983345219563729728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-78268863583923339292019-01-20T18:37:23.819-06:002019-01-20T18:37:23.819-06:00Yes.

My personal experience is of course related, given my career, but man, this book is powerful.Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-60790552178286765802019-01-20T17:22:19.025-06:002019-01-20T17:22:19.025-06:00I think I need to raise this up my TBR list.....I think I need to raise this up my TBR list.....CyberKittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394155516712665665noreply@blogger.com
