I honestly didn't like this book at all. I mean, it's good for a science book, but I would not read it again. It is boring, and in my opinion, the book goes on and on and on.

I think that this book talks a lot about the chemical elements, and some things in the book grabbed my attention, but mostly, this book wasn't all that great. Now I say this because it just really goes into too much detail and I could barely understand any of it throughout this book. If I had to read it again, I might, but it would be me just reading something that I barely understood.

I would NOT recommend this book because if you're like me, and don't always understand science, or you find nonfiction books boring (mostly), then you wouldn't like this book. I also think that this book may be meant for older people, but still, for them, I would not recommend this book if you're not into science. This is why I wouldn't recommend this book.
