Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race by Margot Lee Shetterly
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

i got about halfway through and got bored. the actual stories about these women are inspiring, as you would expect, but the book itself is not very fun to read.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I'm not sure why, but I didn't love this book. It has a great start, with the cherubim and the snake and Mr. Jenkins. But then what they need to do to "solve" the problem felt a bit silly.
Maybe I just wasn't in the mood?
