I loved this book. Its construction is brilliant. I was immediately interested and every layer added to the initial story added another layer of intrigue to the mystery. I feel certain I will read this one again. ]]>

Review7496898493 Thu, 24 Apr 2025 11:20:29 -0700 <![CDATA[Cristi added 'Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection']]> /review/show/7496898493 Everything Is Tuberculosis by John Green Cristi gave 5 stars to Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection (Hardcover) by John Green
I will read anything John Green writes, but I think I like his nonfiction more than the fiction, honestly. While this isn't a deep dive into tuberculosis (it covers way too much ground to truly dive deep into any one thing), it is a great overview of one of the most vicious diseases in human history that is still killing way too many people. Be prepared to put it down with a bitter aftertaste about the dystopian capitalistic hellscape we live in, and expect rage against our corporate overlords. (I listened to the Audible version, which Green reads himself. It's quite engaging.) ]]>

Got this as a Kindle freebie with the Amazon First Reads program. I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did- it was quite well-written and I liked the mystery very much. For a debut novel, it's pretty remarkable! ]]>
