Been There, Done That: A Rousing History of Sex by Rachel Feltman
the author's usual work is writing click bait science articles for online magazines and that is plainly obvious from her writing style.
Salmon Wars: The Dark Underbelly of Our Favorite Fish by Douglas Frantz, Catherine Collins

at one point this book includes the extremely unfounded and harmful idea that eating farm salmon can cause autism. so there's that!
in the spirit of fairness i will say that this book has a lot of well made points and helpful information, and the writing makes what can be a hard and dense subject understandable and interesting. despite that, the inclusion of the autism thing really downgrades any credibility i might have given it before. also, while i don't think bias in reporting is always a bad thing (false equivalency is a serious issue) i think this book could benefit from toning down how aggressive it is in it's beginning. ease ppl into a thing. there is also a certain amount of repetition.
