After the End by Amy Plum
1.0
I could NOT put this book down for probably half of it. The story was great, had some plot holes, but hey that's chill. I got to the point where it turned into a love story and was instantly turned off. It was a romance that wasn't needed and ruined the plot build up a bit for me.
Rocket Boys: A Memoir by Homer Hickam
5.0
I hated biographical type stories when I first read this and I still can't believe how much of an impact it's had on me. It's so powerful, especially for younger kids who are interested in science who might be dissuaded for any reason.
Atomic Adventures: Secret Islands, Forgotten N-Rays, and Isotopic Murder by James Mahaffey
4.0
Very well written and captivating! Certain concepts can be confusing if you're not familiar with nuclear physics. The footnotes and witty comments really added to the story!
Deadly Outbreaks: How Medical Detectives Save Lives Threatened by Killer Pandemics, Exotic Viruses, and Drug-Resistant Parasites by Alexandra M. Levitt
4.0
This was very well-written! Levitt's story telling drew me in immediately and kept the concepts to a public understanding so all can enjoy. I wish these stories went more in depth and that there was more stories she told.
Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster by Svetlana Alexiévich
5.0
I don't think I can write a proper review for how powerful and amazing this book is.
