A review by nrogers_1030
The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by Kate Moore

challenging emotional informative inspiring sad tense slow-paced

5.0

It's appalling what happened to these poor women. I felt the book could have been shorter & the narration a bit less monotone, but I still enjoyed the book.
