#Reading log
2024-05-10: I felt the need for another biography and this one has been on my list for a couple of years. Again, it’s so lovely to dive into the life of one individual and how things were in his time. And I love these long biographies that takes me about a month to finish. I learned so much about the world at the beginning of the 1900s. How both the world wars were connected and how they evolved from the perspective of Einstein’s life. It was also interesting to read about the creation of the atom bomb and how all that played out in the ’40s.
