Unfortunately, this book was a little dragged out. It was a little heavy on the history that seemed a little unnecessary. The story was interesting, but I don‘t think I would recommend this to anyone with any type of remedial science background, it‘s too big on details that most would remember from high school science. A wiki article of this story would‘ve sufficed.😕

Ugh. Devestating and infuriating. A book of collected stories from those affected by the meltdown. Citizens, soldiers, scientists, and volunteers. Took me all month to read it. It was good.. just heavy. All the triggers btw..

The first part of this is like watching a very slow-moving car crash. A call-the-police-and-ambulance-and-fire-department crash.

This is fascinating although it‘s sometimes over my head—physics is not my forte. It‘s very tough to put down. Thus, I‘m alternating between audio and print. 😄

Another book I wouldn‘t have picked up except for #auldlangspine. Thanks, @Sharpeipup 🙌🙌🙌

I completed the #Booked2022 Challenge! HUZZAH!! I likely wouldn't have found Voices or The Prettiest Star without these prompts, so thank you! They were some of the better books I read this year. Now on to 2023.

This book has taken me longer to read than expected because I only wanted to read short sections at a time, but it is well worth the time. It‘s written in a way that continuously reminds you these are stories of individual people and retains a true oral history feel. It‘s both infuriating and heartbreaking. I‘ve read a few books about Chernobyl, but it‘s absolutely the one that feels the most personal.

The temperature is dropping this week, so I cooked up a pot of chili yesterday afternoon. I feel like it‘s been a bit since I enjoyed a a book with my evening meal, so right now I‘m making a little time for a bowl of chili and a few more pages.
