July 2022's pick:
The Underground Railroad, A Woman of No Importance, and The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks -- $30 for three booksFollowing June's campaign (collecting over 575 books!) that celebrated Pride Month and LGTBQ perspectives upon the 2 year anniversary of our bundle program, we do a summer bag of popular history, award wining literary fiction, and groundbreaking science journalism. Colson Whitehead's The Underground Railroad chronicles a young slave's adventures as she makes a desperate bid for freedom in the antebellum South. In The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Rebecca Skloot brings into focus a forgotten Black woman whose cells were mined and exploited by the scientific community without any financial gain for her family. And in the current bestseller A Woman of No Importance, Sonia Purnell shares the remarkable story of a woman spy who was a linchpin of the Resistance during World War II. |
