Dr. Michele Harper writes this memoir about her experiences as an ER doctor and how she has applied them to her life, in order to help her grow. She describes not only her experiences as a practicing doctor and administrator, but talks about how her youth and divorce and other major milestones in her life have caused her to grow.
The book itself is well written and well organized - each chapter is centered around a patient's story and delves into the medical nitty gritty and lessons that each patient teaches Dr. Harper. I really appreciated how this enabled Dr. Harper to jump around in time without the narrative feeling broken. I could hear her voice in her writing, which is simple but beautiful and which flows smoothly and quickly. Definitely a must read.
