Pretty impressive how interesting the author made a book about phosphorous! I sometimes struggle with nonfiction but this was very riveting.

This was educational and informative and unexpectedly relevant to my line of work??? I’m a science nerd through the utter core of my being so I love books like this and this one in particular was right up my alley. Id rate this higher but I didn’t like the order of the story telling. Kind of went in circles without needing to. Anyway, as an environmental scientist with a background in chemistry I think there was a lot of really awesome info here that both the avid scientist or the curious cat can enjoy.

We love a full circle moment. I loved the way this was narrated. I learned a lot. This is obviously a niche interest of mine as an environmental scientist, but I think it would be interesting to anyone. So many take homes.
