Kaitlyn Weston- Epilogue

I’m going to agree with the majority of the class and say that I definitely did enjoy the parts of the book the reflected on Kris’s life and how she dealt with every day struggles, but the parts about Rocky Flats were boring and I struggled to read through them.  While reading about Rocky Flats, I knew the basis of what was going on and I understood the dangers of the plutonium, but it felt as though the details given about Rocky Flats were repetitive and unnecessary.  Although the information was informative, it was a lot to take in and very confusing at times.  I couldn’t keep up with which group was which.  But the memoir part of the book was truly interesting.  To learn about how she grew up and what her family was like reminded me of the way that Butler wrote Parable of the Sower. 
All in all, I did enjoy the book and found it very helpful and informative.  I am now more aware of what can happen and how to prevent it from happening again.
