First book I ever read by Jodi Picoult which lead me to read as many of her other books as I could find. The story has really stuck with me and I find myself thinking about it months after I've read it. This book made me feel crazy amounts of sadness and anger, and I think it will stick with others after they have read it.

Storytelling in the Raw
The Director, Peter Berg, has always done his due diligence in providing the most accurate means of storytelling when it comes to films based on real events, however harsh or offensive they might be. Patriots Day can fill you with anger, sadness, joy or hope, sometimes all at once, which is precisely the task of the director and crew....feeling.

"I had been thinking of this book of essays since I saw the Baldwin documentary I Am Not Your Negro last year, and dipped back into it recently—I hadn’t read it since high school. Back then, it hit me hard. I realized there was a counter-narrative to all the history I had been taught, and I learned that lesson through Baldwin’s beautiful anger."

The force is strong
From the start you are drawn into the force where anger and fear are tested to its max. A battle of wits and brute force conflicting the knowledge of becoming a Jedi and becoming a part of the rebellion to save the universe has everyone at the edge.
