Just finished Jodi Picoult's novel, small great things (and it's a must read)

after reading it through in 24 hours while on a trip to NY.

I don't know if people have already talked about it here--published 2016--but the casting of the movie already has
Viola Davis and Julia Roberts signed.

I think if it's done right, it will turn out to be a Best Movie award winner.

Such a terrific story of a huge problem in this country: racism.

A few weeks back. It's perfectly alright to bring it up again, though. It sounds like a really gripping story.
