spookything17 's review for:
The Hot Zone
by Richard Preston
3.5/10
I was not fond of this book at all. I wanted so badly to like it because I love books about diseases and science but this book felt all kinds of wrong. I liked the descriptions of what was happening to the people and that was it, my negatives are as follows.
1. WHY IN THE HELL DO WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE LAKE UNDERNEATH THE PLANE; WE ARE GOING TO BE HERE FOR A FEW PAGES WHY DOES THAT MATTER? There is just so much unnecessary detail in this book it is crazy.
2. Pick a way to organize the book timeline, and people, and place are some of the options pick something. Sometimes it is organized but most of the time you are being thrown around so much. I completely lost track of who people were because there were so many of them all at once.
3. Everything about this book was very forgettable I think that was because there was so much stuff going on and it was being thrown at us all at once; there are so many better resources to learn from than this just don't read it unless you like to suffer.
