The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

5.0

A must read! Henrietta was a pioneer for medical research without her knowledge or familiy's knowledge for many years. The author did an amazing job of writing the story of Henrietta's life and putting her experiences with Henrietta's family, mostly her daughter Deborah, in words with grace and tenderness. We owe so much to Henrietta. I highly recommend everyone read this powerful story about the Lacks family and the forever memorable Henrietta.
