Thank you for stopping by and thanks for the kind comment 👍👍

It's quite notable that you've also put in some research for your review. I often do that for my work as well to make more sense of the authors' rationale and intentions in coming up with how the books turned out to be, especially for nonfiction pieces. This isn't my preferred genre, but it seems like its also an insightful book. Thank you for your thoughtful write-up.

The medical references would probably just go over my head. :lol2: So, I don't plan on reading this one. However, I thoroughly enjoyed your review. All the very best with your final year!

Oh, I was considering this book to
have some supernatural/horror element as the name depicts. But it's a medical thriller. I would like to give it a try. Nice review.

It sounds like an interesting book and it’s good when someone in the profession can relate to it as that was it has its facts right. Great review.

Yeah, but I doubt whether non-medical personnel will see this as interesting as same as me. Thanks for stopping by 👍👍
