This book is poignant and beautiful and fucking hilarious. Adam Kay is brilliant, and his writing style is fabulous. If you get the chance to see him live- which I have- do it!

This was so affecting and especially poignant reading it as someone who dropped out of medical school. I loved learning about the ins and outs of obs and gynae medicine, about different conditions and their treatments. It was deeply frustrating and angering to read about the deep systemic issues chipping away at the health system and the affect it had on doctors. I work for a union now and it made my blood boil to witness such appalling working conditions and health and safety arising from austerity. The author narrates the book in such a laid-back and funny way, which makes the sad bits even more impactful. Would definitely recommend it!vivmorris's review against another edition
