Coma | Robin Cook

pick

If you‘re into medical horror and thrillers, this book is for you. A newly minted doctor, fresh out of med school realizes something is very wrong about the string of recent comas taking place in the hospital she works at.
—I saw the 1978 movie and thought it was pretty disturbing—I‘d love to watch the new mini-series. Have you seen it?

Coma | Robin Cook

I read this in the early 1980s - pre-Stephen King novels, and thought it was pretty thrilling

This took quite a while to finish due to the arrival of my PS5, a week of vacation and a 3-day reenacting event. 🙄 I wouldn't call it 'fast-moving' as a blurb says on the back, but I liked it well enough.

I loved the way the writer used niche words with such maturity and elegance. The novel is woven with a bit of suspense and humour (if you could guess😅) and perfect introduction of the characters (eg. Susan; she appeared like a girl of Pepsi-Cola people's dreams)

I used to have some serious made love for Robin Cook!!!

Texasblues I remember that one - my grandma would check his books out of the library and I'd steal them all to read. So creepy. 9y

Book_Gnome I think I read them all back in the day. Loved them. 😂😂😂 I never had to sneak them. I just bought them outright. Hahahaha 9y

Texasblues There were some "incidents" after I stayed up all night reading Stephen King and couldn't sleep until daybreak - my parents started trying to censor horror material in response. My grandma had no such compunctions. 9y

Book_Gnome Ha! My parents NEVER censored me. Perhaps they should have! I remember reading King as a young teen bit before that I render watching Salems Lot with my dad as a PREteen. I still hear that scratching at on the window 😥😥😥 9y

readingallthetime I loved this book. It absolutely terrified me. 9y

readingallthetime I should clarify I was referring to Coma. 9y
