2020: A fascinating memoir. This book was full of information that I learned once upon a time in an AP Bio class (and good ol APES), building upon the basics enough that I was interested, without going too far into the details that I got lost. The book alternates between stories from Jahren’s lab, and her personal life. It’s the personal stories that should be the most interesting, and yet it’s those that leave the biggest gaps and left me wondering, I’m sorry, how did we get here again? A lovely foray into sciencey narrative non-fiction, but not so clear that I can give it the full five stars.
