Allie liked Shreeya !!!'s review of Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction:

"Nice continuation of what I learned in my drugs and behavior class in terms of the science, but I wish there were more vignettes and also more attention given to the racial dimension of addiction and the history of Big Pharma in essentially creating the opioid epidemic�� still I enjoyed it most of the time and I appreciated the last chapter "

Allie added 'Ward No. 6 and Other Stories'

Allie gave 5 stars to Ward No. 6 and Other Stories (Paperback) by Anton Chekhov
“Each grain of insight, each transcendental moment has to be earned at great cost, and the author unceasingly and mercilessly reminds us of its ephemeral nature. At the end of the day, there is a hard-hearted kindness in his work that refuses easy answers and comforting half-truths. To read his works with the insight they demand, and to learn to see the world with the courage with which he depicts it, is one of the most rewarding journeys literature has to offer��

This is a quote from the introduction that stuck with me from the moment I read it. I loved this collection and the introduction and publishing history with it. I really have nothing further to add. That quote does it beautifully
