My thoughts while reading The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks:
(About Henrietta) Amazing woman. So strong, emotionally and physically to keep going when she is in so much pain. She deserved the world despite never getting it.
(About George Gey) What a c h a r a c t e r. A whole winery in his basement. Amazing. A true mad scientist. Probably has ADHD. I love him.
(About Courtney Speed) Sweet mother 🥺. She cares so much. What an amazing woman.
(About Alexis Carrel) Terrible trash n*zi man. I would go back in time just to murder him. Literally the devil incarnated as a human. Die.
