Livia
is finished
Quick thoughts: I couldn't get quality or quantity sleep last night, so I read the last hour of this book via audiobook format. My dad's cancer was mentioned, and today I did a blood panel to test for the cancer gene since I'm at risk for breast cancer. I was curious about this topic and am glad I finally finished it on my 3rd or so library loan.

I didn't know that A.I.D.S. was previously known as GRID or that the Treatment drug cocktail was borrowed from oncology treatment. This history of cancer has been incredibly informative.🧐

My read is on hold due to other library patrons requesting a copy. I'll have to get back in the hold queue myself.⏳️

This is such a dense read that it's going to take me a while to get through it. I can only read a few chapters a week, but I'm finding it very informative.
