The Hot Zone

4.09 AVERAGE


this was assigned reading for my bio class in high school, and being the nerd i was, i was one of the few people who actually read it. i have since read it about 8 or 9 times (it remains my go-to poolside reading, along with brave new world)

holy CRAP.

i love this book so much. i don't know what it is about terrifying biohazard stories that make me read them again and again.

A very interesting but dramatized look into how viruses are handled, and how they live and work.

Isn’t this what all the hot girls are reading this summer?
