Why read it?
1 author picked Out of Patients as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I like that this book is in first person because, at times, it feels as if you are in a conversation with the main character.
The book opens with a super-strong voice and is contemporary rather than historical. After I did all the research for historical novels having to do with female doctors, I felt the need to move forward in novels to see if anything had changed as far as attitudes toward women doctors were concerned.
And indeed, yes, things are better in this book, but tension and problems still require grappling.
From Isabel's list on female doctors.
