Sharks Don't Sink: Adventures of a Rogue Shark Scientist by Jasmin Graham

Did not finish book. Stopped at 44%.

It's often hard for me to really explain what does or doesn't work for me in memoirs, but I knew this one just wasn't working. The whole thing just sounded vaguely like a grant proposal. Graham never goes into quite enough detail in any of her stories for the message she wants me to get to fully sink in, and the metaphors comparing sharks to black Americans were often strained. I think I just wanted it to be more personal, and if that's not what Graham wanted to present, then that's her choice. But it just fell flat for me.
