A review by sonygaystation
The Hot Zone by Richard Preston

challenging dark emotional informative mysterious reflective sad tense fast-paced

3.5

I have a longer review writing itself in my brain but for now what I have to say is this: as an epidemiologist, this book felt much more sensational and trying to use ebola to generate attention via scare tactics. Preston is a very sensationalist and exaggerated writer, plus his viewpoints, word choices, and assumptions of character feel pretty Old-Ass White Man even for the early 90s
