The Cure

"Finally, I always like to highlight one or two books by writers who aren’t household names yet. This year, both my husband and I enjoyed The Cure by Eve Smith, a dystopian/medical thriller in which a cure has been found for ageing. Though this book, again, is fiction, one can’t help but feel it’s depicting a world that’s not too far off. It gave me quite a bit of food for thought—about health inequality, our approach to death, and what the boundaries of medicine should be."
