Wine: a Wonderful Alsacian Pinot Gris and a Hess Cab Sav
Enjoyable discussion of "Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup", a nonfiction book by journalist John Carreyrou, released May 21, 2018. It covers the rise and fall of the firm Theranos, the multibillion-dollar biotech startup headed by Elizabeth Holmes – the enigmatic founder now charged with fraud. Everyone (who read it so far) said it was a page turner. Elizabeth Holmes is currently undergoing her trial. A film version is reportedly also in the works, starring Jennifer Lawrence as Elizabeth Holmes.
Next book:
