Thanks for your insightful review. I had read other reviews of this book which made me not want to read it. But your review and the excerpt have me interested. Last year, I read Say Nothing by Patrick Raddon Keefe which is nonfiction about the troubles (and one of my favorites from 2020). I heard Milkman is sort of a companion, if you wanted to pair a novel with a nonfiction book. I am putting Milkman back on my TBR.

I've been thinking a lot about Milkman this week. I live in D.C. and have been watching as the Green Zone grows ever larger, and checkpoints become the norm.

I really enjoyed Milkman. Interestingly, me and one other person in my book club read it on a long flight. We had a way different experience than members who tried to pick it up and put it down.
