I was expecting more of a magic themed book, not an autobiography of a neurosurgeon. The cover was also a reason I chose this book. The cover was of a human brain, I found that interesting and unique to other book covers. ]]> 2018-10-26 11:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mwagner13/v6wcelrrr2gn/wish/297335819
