The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

challenging emotional informative medium-paced

3.75

spoiler free review - Amazing book and extremely informative. I had to read this for biology and oh my god, I learned things I never knew happened in history. This book is more of a critique on medical ethics rather than actual biology, but I think that’s the best part. It can be a bit of a bore for most people so that’s why i rated it 3.75, but I personally enjoyed it. I wouldn’t call it a favorite, though.
