In 1951, her cells were taken (without permission) which lead to many of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of the 20th Century and today. Skloot weaves history, science, a harrowing tale of womanhood and racism into a riveting novel that will keep us in the aircon until the last page. <\/p>\n<h3>The Gentleman\u2019s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee<\/h3>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BngkNCvlaDX\/<\/p>\n<p>As a coming-of-age story, circa 18th-Century Europe, The Gentleman\u2019s Guide to Vice and Virtue is one of our favourite books to read. It promises the romance of old Europe with a tale of a boy rebelling against his family claims and falling in love from Paris to Rome. <\/p>\n<h3>Sour Heart by Jenny Zhang<\/h3>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BjnEpF7AszI\/<\/p>\n<p>It is 1990\u2019s New York City and a group of Chinese immigrants are struggling to make sense of their surroundings, both how they got there and how to survive there.
