Still reading Iron Widow, Xiran Jay Zhao.

However, I also read John Green's new book Everything is Tuberculosis in its entirety on Tuesday. It was fascinating, and the story of Henry Reider (a tuberculosis patient/survivor in Sierra Leone Green met in 2019) is astoundingly well-told.

I keep hearing great things about Everything is Tuberculosis. I'll have to get to that one.

It's a very interesting read; I recommend it!!

Everything is Tuberculosis was great! Using Henry's story to weave through it all was a really good choice.

Yes! I really liked that Green kept the focus on Henry and his mother throughout, and made it more about Henry than himself by using Henry's own words about his experiences.
