A review by halfcentreader
The Plague Year: America in the Time of COVID by Lawrence Wright

3.0

Reading nonfiction is not generally what I enjoy... and I can't say I really enjoyed this chronicle of the Covid outbreak in 2019/20. By reading it though, I feel it accurately and historically portrays what was done well and not done well not only in America but around the world. I learned a few interesting things I had not been aware of but was also depressingly reminded of a time that has barely passed.. of the negative emotions and feelings that were both personal and national. Since Covid is still our time... this book just came to soon for me.
