Review for In Stitches - Dr Nick Edwards.
As a former nurse I absolutely love these kind of memoir books from health care professionals about their experiences in our NHS but this one didn't really go down too well for me. It is very informative and gives you a great inside look at what being a doctor in A&E is really like in the NHS and despite some parts being funny and witty, I feel like not everyone would understand the jokes as they are very tailored to working in the NHS. Also, it was a bit too much like a big rant which he does state is the reason why he writes and I'm fine with that but it was a bit too politically motivated for my liking
