Join us on the second Thursday of each month at 7pm to tackle fascinating memoirs, tales of true crime, nature, medicine and more.
This month's title, Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup by John Carreyrou, will prove that the truth is more 'disquieting' than fiction.
Documents the rise and collapse of Theranos, a multibillion-dollar biotech startup that promised to revolutionize the medical industry with a machine that would make blood tests significantly faster and easier, except the technology didn't work.
Copies of the print book will be available at the Circulation Desk.
