I enjoyed this fictional take on Rosalind Franklin, an X-ray crystallographer whose work helped develop the modern understanding of molecular biology. While I was impressed with her accomplishments, I found the pace of Her Hidden Genius to be too slow. Because of its pacing issue, my attention often wandered while reading the title, ultimately impacting my enjoyment of the story.
