This book was alright. Lots of typos, and the story was pretty lackluster. Some interesting medical knowledge but nothing too crazy. I’m a medical sciences major and I was hoping for more out of this book. If you don’t have a lot of knowledge about medicine though, I could see it being really interesting to you!
