His “Say Nothing: A Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland” is an excellent read, as well.

It is a second Patrick Radden Keefe banger. Took me a bit to get through the biographical background and almost chalked it up as a DNF, but it pays off

I notice a lot of your 5 stars are non fiction. What new 5 stars have you read recently that are fiction?

One of my favorite books - but what really caught me off guard was the first half following the Sackler brothers at the beginning of the company. All the ambition, intelligence, and discrimination swirling together and ultimately laying the groundwork for much of our medical marketing was completely new information to me.
