Book Club

The book club met at Starbucks to discuss "Life of Pi" and it was a great discussion. A couple of the ladies didn't finish the book and I was almost one of them. I really enjoyed talking with the ladies about their interpretations.

I have just started reading "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" and so far I am really liking the story. It's about a lady named Henrietta Lacks who had cancer; a researcher was able to get some of her cells from a doctor so that he could try and grow the cells outside of Henrietta's body. They are famously call the HeLa cells. I'm learning a lot of scientific background and terms.

I'll post when I finish the book and let you know what I think at that point.
