This wasn’t in the Textbooks by Demie Risby

Kindle Unlimited/Kindle +     Paperback

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The roofer hasn't turned up yet and I'm reading to try and reduce/forget hunger today, so I'm reading this as my second book of the morning and I love medical books (as long as they aren't too gross lol) so I'm looking forward to getting my nose stuck into this book.

If you've read any of my other recent book reviews, you'll already know the way I start them all off - by saying that every book I read and review starts off with the full ward of stars and this book is no different.  You'll also know that I'm not shy about removing stars if I think it's necessary but that I always give my reason(s) for doing so within the review, they don't just vanish into thin air.

At 146 pages long, this will hopefully be a book that I can dive deep into without getting too grossed out and I'm hoping it'll only take a couple of hours to read then I can make myself a drinking chocolate before hopefully reading another book this afternoon.

Let's get reading and reviewing, shall we?

I'm a bit confused about whether it's a student nurse or a student doctor - the cover shows a doctor's white coat, but the description is of a student nurse??

Reading the first two chapters has revealed that it's definitely a student nurse and I have similar memories to my times in hospital as a child too.

Up to chapter 6 now and I really felt for the student nurse and that blood pressure cuff!

I've just finished reading this incredible book.  It took a lot longer than 2 hours but it was worth every minute for me.
