Toot

Started and finished #ProphetSong on a couple of flights on Sunday. I haven't reacted so strongly to a book like that in quite a while. I had to stop reading a few times, it's tough in places.

But as a warning of how it could happen, how Ireland could slip, and the rise of the far right, it was quite chilling, told amongst the mundanity of kids' lunches and baked goods.I still don't know if I liked it. I don't think liking is the right word. But I can't stop thinking about it either.

@cianhan It's really, really good. I was the same. I couldn't sleep. It's terrifying in how plausible it is

@cianhan I read it sometime back and it felt too personal and shocking.
