Carrier: Untangling the Danger in My DNA by Bonnie J. Rough

3.0

An interesting look at hereditary disease and the choices we're given by medical advances. I'm not a big fan of memoir in general, and this one falls prey to some of the same problems (it's hard to through a bunch of events together and make them seem like narrative when they just AREN'T). There are also some weird chapters where she imagines events from her grandfather's point of view - those didn't work for me. An interesting and quick read, but, for me, too many creative liberties and not enough science.
