This was so interesting and I am really happy that I picked it up. I've heard so much about this - and about Henrietta in the past few months (year?) as the book gains popularity and the news becomes more widespread. It is a fascinating look at the history of medicine in the US - especially around patient consent and patient rights. But it is also a very personal story of the Lacks family and what hey went through. Highly recommend!
