A review by lilo000
The House of God by Samuel Shem

3.75

A high 3 stars. I think the style of writing sometimes deviated from what I appreciate in writing. The commentary was quite relevant and an interesting read overall. The satire and naming is unreal good, but I don't think I could get past the writing style - just personal preference. (part of the reason it took me so long to read) It's extremely honest and takes a hard look at the life of medical residency. Definitely a good book to have read, but I wanted to like it more than I did.
