This was an interesting read, but it would have been better if Rebecca Skloot had removed herself from some sections of the book. That being said, I understand how difficult it was for her to find information regarding Henrietta Lacks. Her book relied mostly on interviews with Henrietta's family and the scientists involved in taking Henrietta's cells. Rebecca spent many years developing relationships with Henrietta's family, which may be why she couldn't separate herself from the story.
