Fabulous book. Everything about the story was interesting from the ethical and moral implications of medical testing to the families involved. Author's personalization of the Lacks family and what they went through made it especially touching.
I learned that I missed a couple of books before this. Make sure you read the books before this one or you are in for a big surprise!!
a haunting mix of poetry, language, and fact. for me, the best kind of history book there is.
I have such a crush on Dr John Henry Holliday now.

Absolutely freaking Brilliant!!!
This book is heart breaking. The imagery is so spectacular and real at the same time. I skipped the movie because I can't imagine that any film could capture what I already saw when I read the book. There is no way to do justice to the movie that was created in my brain when I read this master piece.

Each story has the stories of each of its characters inside it. So far, this book is terrifyingly good.

Initially I was hesitant to read another "young readers" book, but the idea of a young girl who stole and read books to others in Nazi Germany appealed to me. The book starts off slowly but picks up the pace after the first chapter or so and what followed was a beautiful and fascinating story about coming of age and innocence lost growing up in Nazi Germany. The book is funny, exciting, and moving throughout. The ending was perfect. It left me in tears, satisfied, and yet wanting more all at the same time.
Blessed is the woman who affirms herself each day, Blessed is the woman who zeroes in on qualities that will help her become. Life is full of blessings. Perhaps that is one of the things we, women, seem to forget. We are the super-human beings who take care of others, organize others, run the household, cheer others on, and the list continues. When we reach that star-studded age of forty, we often wonder what happened. How could we have let those years of youth pass us by so quickly? What did we miss in the process? Well, at forty, we enter the age of elegance, the age of dignity, refinement and grace. We may see more gray hairs and wrinkles, and our energy level may be less than it once was; but, at forty, we have reached a time in which we can take care of ourselves first, as well as honor and pamper ourselves. We deserve this much. We have worked hard for the privilege of putting ourselves at the top of our personal to-do lists. What better way to start the next phase of living than to make a list of priorities that suit our needs and prepare for our future so that we can, in fact, age with elegance. It is not a time to moan lost youth. It is not a time to be afraid of the aging process. It is, however, a time to celebrate our successes and to enjoy ourselves, in short, to enjoy life. Chloe Jon Paul is a retired educator. As a writer who has entered the age of elegance, Paul shares her experiences, her talents and her knowledge of how to grow old elegantly, with dignity, refinement and grace. Entering the Age of Elegance is Paul’s very positive step-by-step guide, which includes practical suggestions, resources for further study, and encouragement for all of us women who are thrust into this era without prior preparation. Although many of us may have role models - mothers, aunts, grandmothers, who showed us the way of living elegantly - most of us are often clueless and, quite frankly, frightened at the prospect of growing old, or, worse, growing old all alone. It can be done, though, and we can be a shining example of elegance for the next generation of elegant women. Entering the Age of Elegance is a valuable resource with useful tips and resources to help the elegant over-forty woman age gracefully. Entering the Age of Elegance is highly recommended by award-winning author, Emily-Jane Hills Orford, Allbooks Reviews.
