This book is a moving story of the radium girls of the 1920s and 30s. It was written in such a way that it read like a story more than true facts but it was true. Although I already knew the high-level story of this book, there were many shocking moments. I did annotate this book and I think that allowed me to move slower through the book and hopefully absorb more of the information. It was an insane read. And I would recommend it to anyone that has any inkling that this topic might be interesting to them.
