Favorite Quote:
“There are so many who have no one else to turn to, even if you think you know otherwise. Even if it looks like they have a mother, a sister, a friend. Maybe there’s a reason they can’t turn to those closest to them. That’s where we come in. That is the daily work we are here for. Giving women a choice over what happens in their bodies. Are we clear?”
I absolutely loved this book—words can hardly do justice to how much I enjoyed it. The themes felt incredibly relevant, and I was especially drawn to the relationships and deep understanding shared between the women. When I first came across *Everything is Poison* on NetGalley, I was thrilled to dive into it, and it did not disappoint. The writing is exceptional, and the interludes about the people of Campo Marzio added such richness to the narrative. Carmella’s story feels like a coming-of-age journey, but in a wholly unique and compelling way. This book was so captivating, it’s made me want to grab a La Tofana Apothecary sweatshirt. Absolutely phenomenal.
