The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

5.0

i'm a firm believer that anyone who's interested in science/medical-adjacent fields (or even ethics!) should read this book. it's meticulously crafted and fact-checked with hundreds of hours of interviews backing it up from family members, doctors, ... it is raw, nuanced, & enthralling: a recipe for a read i will be thinking about for years to come. especially excited to get the privilege to use hela cells in the near future
