It is said that this book is based on true story written as fiction to get published.
Once you start reading you won't be able to stop!

Hated Sputnik Sweetheart but i was looking into End of the World. Might give it a try
Currently finishing "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" by Rebecca Skloot. Very interesting and disturbing look into how the medical field was able to gain the world's first infinitely reproducing culture medium (HeLa cells) from a negro woman in the south. Henrietta Lacks cancer cells were taken from her unwillingly while her cancer was being neglected by the white doctors. Her cells were instrumental in curing Polio, and they still live till this day but many people never knew where they originated from or the immoral beginning from which they sprung. Racism and Medicine; once you pick up the book, you wont put it down.
