The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by Kate Moore

Did not finish book. Stopped at 37%.
I really didn't like the tone of this book. There were too many tongue-in-cheek one-liners at the end of paragraphs that I felt really minimized what had been said. That, and a lot of editorializing about how we, the reader, should be perceiving these people, and trying to draw very clear good/bad lines. I found myself becoming annoyed with the prose, and as a result couldn't get into the narrative.
