Really interesting, not to mention critically important. A slower read; takes some time to digest all the information, but picks up a little after the second chapter or so; the author also injects a good amount of her own humor on what otherwise would be a pretty serious book. I didn't find her anecdotal story to be convincing proof of inherited trauma (depression doesn't always result from external factors, I think it is sometimes literally just a chemical imbalance) but other authors (possibly Jesmyn Ward's Men We Reaped, Johnnie Christmas' Swim Team touches on it a little, definitely Caleb Gayle's We Refuse to Forget, to name just a few works worth reading)
