I was given a galley of Fentanyl, Inc. after I wrote about overdose prevention spaces this summer, but I didn’t read it right away because, frankly, I wasn’t sure I wanted to read a whole book about fentanyl. It sounded unbearably grim, and I had just spent months reporting, researching, talking, and thinking about substance use disorders and the havoc they cause, which was rough. It was a worthwhile pursuit, and I am planning to write more about drug policy and harm reduction in the future, but I needed to take a break from thinking about it as much as I was.
