Welcome to Durham to me!.

PSA Aldi has dog hats

Currently reading:. Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese.Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas.Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman. Let me know your recs!!!.

Last but not least (for historical reasons). The House of God by Samuel Shem. Wow does it read like it was written in the 1970s and is hard to get through at times, but sadly still has plenty of truths in medicine today and the (in)famous rules -- Age + BUN = lasix dose

Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach. An honest insight into the process of dying and the impact of body donors in medical training and beyond from a journalist. Very quick read, would recommend!

⭐️Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. An @AnnaGaddy recommendation I finally got around to that MORE than exceeded expectations. Painful, funny, and a realistic insight into practicing medicine abroad and in the US! His writing flows so nicely and paints a brilliant story

The Secret Race: Inside the Hidden World of the Tour de France: Doping, Cover-ups, and Winning at All Costs by Tyler Hamilton. Listened to this in a single day as an engrossed cyclist in the wild history of performance-enhancing substances from one of Lance's teammates

The Real Doctor Will See You Shortly by Matt McCarthy. Feeling like a modern "House of God", a quick glimpse into what intern year might be like

Dune series by Frank Herbert . As a sci-fi buff, finally got through Dune. Slogged through Dune Messiah and couldn't get through more than 50 pages of Children of Dune.

⭐️When Death Becomes Life by Joshua Mezrich (re-read #2). Read this first during a pre-med book club @UWMadison and now after experiencing transplant medicine, should be a required read on any transplant rotation

All in Her Head: The Truth and Lies Early Medicine Taught Us About Women's Bodies and Why It Matters Today by Elizabeth Comen. A sobering history of women's healthcare in the US and the challenges still faced today

⭐️The Three Body Problem series by Cixin Liu -- waiting on book 3 from Libby. Ooooooh boy this scratched the hard sci-fi itch I'd been having! The Netflix show gives it a good representation as well. Go in knowing nothing about the series and hang on for the ride

Every Patient Tells a Story: Medical Mysteries and the Art of Diagnosis by Lisa Sanders. Solid frameworks to consider patient diagnoses, with interesting reminders of how much things have changed since the early 2000s. The inspiration for "House"!
