Wicked Plants: The Weed That Killed Lincoln's Mother & Other Botanical Atrocities by Amy Stewart

4.0

note to self: always wear gloves when gardening. maybe put poison control on speed dial.

and, of course, the obvious - don't eat anything you're unsure of.

not really a book to "read through", but one for casual reading. perfect for the bathroom.

it was surprising to read about all the common plants that can cause seizures, coma and death, in addition to irritating rashes. i started to freak out a little, but then realized that much of it was common sense.
