JD Vance's memoir "Hillbilly Elegy" has gained renewed interest and attention as he becomes Trump's vice presidential pick. The memoir "Hillbilly Elegy" examines his Ohio upbringing and the struggles of poor white Appalachian communities. Both fans and critics are looking to the book and its film adaptation to understand Vance's views on issues like poverty, addiction, and his "everyday" background. Goodreads temporarily blocked new book reviews to prevent "review bombing" in response to Vance's selection as Trump's running mate.
