dark informative reflective fast-paced

4.25

This book was good, but the sudden topic switch into eugenics with no warning was a little much. I thought this would be a light hearted memoir/science book like Spineless and instead it is a reflective novel on eugenics, forced sterilisation and the damage of labels. While it’s good it is a lot heavier than advertised.
