Title: The Hot Zone
Product review: The Hot Zone by Richard Preston is a good book for educational purposes, but definitely not for entertainment or fun. I learned more than I ever wanted to know about the Ebola viruses. But I was bored, disgusted, scared and annoyed.It was really descriptive and gory. The way that the book described the way somebody died of the Ebola virus scared me to death!!!It also got really interesting and easy to follow until the end of the first chapter. Then I was so bored that I couldn't even follow the book. I couldn't concentrate.I ended up reading part of the book, then starting totally over a few times. I would read for a while then realize that I had been so distracted that I had no idea what I had just read.The book would build up a lot of suspense then nothing would happen.Once I read the book all the way through I realized that I had actually learned a lot, but I wouldn't chose to read it again.
