3.75

informative reflective medium-paced

science is so cool. where luciferase + gfp come from. so much climate change + ecology science. japan + israel travel nuts. jellyfish most efficient swimmers + nyad cool. loved the asshole scientist whose pissed shes a journalist at all his conferences through 80% of the book. getting pet jellies + how to cook it was interesting too
everything outside of jelly fish science overview was…. not great esp anything around wwii history. her life story + how she fell into the world of jellies was interesting
