I was expecting more from this book. All things considered, it was a smash hit and propelled both a noteworthy movie and Robin Cook's vocation. I'm not by any means beyond any doubt why. By one means or another the story figures out how to lurch along and keep the peruser intrigued, yet it has various issues. I for one hung with it simply because I knew something would(or ought to) in the end happen.
Initially is the matter of the courageous woman, Susan, a third-year restorative understudy whose one quality is that she's persuaded that the two extreme lethargies cases she experiences on her first day of residency at the healing facility are associated. Other than that, she's confounded, insufficient, disobedient, and a run of the mill 1970s swinging single who lays down with her manager on a first date(likewise on her first day).
Second are the greater part of alternate characters, none of whom is a great deal more than a cardboard set pattern. Third is the imagined story, which for the most part comprises of Susan demanding that she's privilege and every other person is in her way, to the point that she overlooks her assignments and plans and even takes PC time. I would have shown her out of school, as well, paying little heed to how attractive she looked. At the point when the real extreme lethargies connivance kicks in amid the last quarter of the book, it truly doesn't hold up to much examination. No one would have gone to that much inconvenience and cost and hazard for so little payback. What's more, the association is ridiculous. No big surprise a therapeutic understudy brought them down.
To finish everything off, the written work is weary and overburdened with restorative phrasing(yes, I know it's a'therapeutic thriller', yet at the same time) and redundant thoughtfulness and self-hatred. Disillusioning
