Henrietta Lacks

The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is very interesting and very engaging, and like Smacholdt, I too agree that it reads like a fictional novel. Because of that, it raises many questions for me about how Skloot knows so many details that she incorporates throughout the novel. When she is explaining certain stories, she explains them so vividly that it makes me question how does she know THAT many details. Did she ADD things to make the novel more interesting. I feel that she does.
