The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is much more interesting then i expected it to be. This is probably because 95% of the books I had to read during my high school career were absolutely awful. This book actually kept me engaged both because of the topic is pretty interesting and the way it is written keeps me interested.

The only real complaint I have is that I dont like books that jump around with the timeline, but now that Im writing this and thinking about it the story probably wouldnt really be as interesting if it the timeline was how it really happened. If that were the case it would simply be a biography followed by the author writing out the process by which she wrote the book, which would be boring.
