I nearly didn't finish. I so desperately wanted a story about med school and when I saw that the writer was a physician, I had such hopes.

First of all, this cover is GORGEOUS. We need to get that out of the way.
I really, really enjoyed this book. I loved the complexity of the different types of relationships that were portrayed. It made the characters more real and likeable. (Except Nick. Fuck him.) The betrayal mentioned in the synopsis came a little slow for my liking, but once it dropped it stunned me! So well-written, so emotional. I highly recommend!

This book sort of threw my reading schedule off balance. I usually read about a book a week, but this one took me a lot longer to get through. I don’t know why but I wasn’t pulled towards reading this book like I am with others. Maybe it was the fruitless drama that bordered on cliche medical drama television. So here’s the upside: if you really like Grey’s Anatomy, I’d definitely recommend this book for you. But if you’re like me and prefer realistically heavy medical plots that focus on difficult subjects, you might be better off leaving this on the shelf.
