The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
by Rebecca Skloot
This one has been on my list for a while, I’m a bit ashamed of that. I am so interested in the story, and anxious to one day finally get to it.
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells—taken without her knowledge in 1951—became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, and more.

Definitely recommend The Master and Margarita- it’s hard, heavy and humorous. I wasn’t sure as I turned the first few pages but it ended up being the book you can’t put down- might actually need to pick it up again now that you’ve reminded me!!
Happy reading

I definitely want to read the one about Henrietta Lacks. I have a copy. I just haven’t gotten to it yet. I want to pick a time where I am not interrupted. But soon . . .
