A review by lizzy_hill
Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green

challenging hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

Renowned YA fiction author Green is back with a compact, accessible, and empathetic history of TB. His insights into humanity, as always, are compassionate and hopeful, even as he struggles to understand the ways humanity has chosen to abandon those who are suffering. Definitely worth the read.
