This is Going to Hurt
by Adam Kay
funny
informative
inspiring
fast-paced
"This Is Going to Hurt" by Adam Kay is a hilarious yet sobering memoir that offers a glimpse into the chaotic life of a junior doctor in the NHS. Kay's sharp wit shines through as he shares laugh-out-loud anecdotes, like the woman who mistakenly ate a bowl of blood clots instead of her placenta, which is as gross as it is funny.
While the humor is abundant, there's a poignant undercurrent that reveals the terrifying realities of healthcare—junior doctors stretched to their limits, often working for free, in a crumbling system. This blend of comedy and stark truth makes for a compelling read that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. A must-read for anyone who enjoys dark humor and insights into the medical profession!
