I really liked this. Took me awhile to get used to the setting and terminology, but the dictionary at the back was a big help. I loved how the story was told from different perspectives, and found all the characters likable and deliciously complex. If you‘re a sci-fi fan, or just enjoy a good story and aren‘t afraid to read something a little bit different, then this is for you.

It‘s been a while since I last logged a book, but I received some as gifts, and so it begins!
I really enjoyed this book. The humour was right up my street and was a joy to read.
However, it often made me feel sick, and has potentially put me off childbirth for life😂
In all seriousness, it really opened my eyes to the difficulties that doctors in all departments experience, and the flaws in the NHS

Although I read this before, I still really enjoyed it the second time round. I kind of read it in a different way though, and had a very different opinion on the characters, which surprised me, as this never happened to me before. Over all, I really enjoyed reading it, and it has a lot of good laughs and likeable characters.

This slapped, I adored Holden and felt like I‘d known him forever, as if he was a friend. Such a complex character living a sort of tragic(?) life. Read during lockdown- end of May 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
