I can’t wait to read this.
Oh, Fentanyl is the leading cause of drug overdose deaths in the United States and it's a terrible trend because it's going up at a rate of something like 23% a year, but heart disease and cancer are the biggest killers in the United States by an order of magnitude. 700,000 people die from heart disease each year, 600,000 from cancer, and 70,000 from opioid overdoses. Covid's still killing 120,000 people a year, too. Crazy numbers, all.
I’m doing on the ground reporting on fentanyl on the streets of Portland. It’s hella dismal.
Okay, this video made me laugh. I ordered the book.
Great review, I also had moments of overt laughter while reading this book. Lapvona is next on my list. I recently finished Paradais by Melchor and would love to see a review from you on it in the future! Much less dense than Hurricane Season but brilliant nonetheless.
this review is awesome. thank you.
mcglue is awesome
