4.5
emotional hopeful informative inspiring sad fast-paced

A quick but thorough dive into tuberculosis. I learned a lot about the history and, regrettably, about the continued prevalence of TB. 

The writing is concise but still evokes heart wrenching stories, particularly of Henry. 

While the discourse about pharmaceuticals (J&J, specifically) is unsurprising, it’s frustrating nonetheless. 

I think this book would be appropriate for high schoolers, perhaps in their biology or history classes.
