A Case of Need by Michael Crichton, Jeffery Hudson

4.0

This book was downright amazing! The depiction of a real life doctor is the most accurate thing given the fact that the author himself is one. I learned a lot of medical terminologies and facts from this book plus everything was perfectly planned, I didn’t see the ending nor the spine of the case right away since its done very subtly! There was a lot to unpack bout the ending cos it happened so damn fast but it all made sense you’d literally say “OHHH” and proceeds on puzzling every piece. The book itself is also controversial. It tackles Abortion. I personally think abortion should be legal and accessible to everyone, if that were the case then nobody should’ve been accused here but hey, who knows what caused her death
