I hated the main character but for once, I did not see that twist coming.

This book covered many different types of discrimination, neglect, racism, and trauma in the medical community and a doctor who recognized it. I'm thankful to see someone speaking about the lapses in medicine and how it has impacted people all over, especially marginalized communities.

I listened to this book because of the VCUG mention in Chapter 8. I was given a VCUG 3-4 times from 18m to 6 years old. It wasn't until later that I discovered that my sexual trauma stemmed from this. I can not explain what experiencing this young has done to me here but I spent years knowing I was SAd but not remembering specific events, trauma from the recurring nightmares, inappropriate feelings and play. I was 33 years old when I put it all together. In the end, this was not something fully communicated to my mother and incomprehensible by me. This chapter specifically covered consent and the importance of getting the consent forms signed, with the patient fully understanding the information not really mattering to most at all.

I really liked this book and will recommend it to other women.

I never expected to come across Aaron Carter's (my forever faveeee) name in two places in this book. I learned a lot and genuinely had a fun time getting some details in band drama, like the split between Brendon Urie and Ryan Ross of Panic!.

I slept on this and I just feel like there is more. I don't know if this rating is fair because there is more in the book, but it ending with more question than answer is a hard pill to swallow. However, I noticed a few chapters in that there is some sort of Morse code happening. I heard there is a community out there to work together to decipher it and I'm not sure I have time. However, I feel compelled to properly end a story that actually got more interested for me instead of more boring. This book grabbed me and pulled me in but I have no answers!

The ending killed it for me. Too “perfect”. The massive eye roll as soon as it happened. Ugh. I loved the movie.

I called the twist of this book as soon as the subject was introduced. The ride was fun if you like drama but I'm a bit disappointed that it was so predictable.

I predicted both plot twists but at least the ride was kind of fun.

Honestly, maybe it's my fault but I watched the documentary with this same info. In one chapter he even says “Last episode”. It's great info, I just technically already read it. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

not at all my style, perhaps that's my fault for going in blind.

I just didn't care reading this.

I listened on audiobook and I could not stay into it. I was mostly bored and unimpressed by the main guy who's so tough, (eye roll)

I really enjoyed this book. I love KC Davis on Tiktok. Her no folding method and dish rack for dirty dishes really turned me on to her in an effort to see what other rules I could break. She writes this book in a way I feel seen and understood. It's because of her I have received the message loud and clear how care tasks are morally neutral, so I was already well aware prior to this book. It's an important message. She acknowledges privilege (i.e. those who have more time, less demanding jobs/lives, etc) and that no matter your struggle, you are valid and worthy.

I highly recommend KC Davis content

Overall, some corny dialogue but a good story.
