Funny and doesn't hold back (0 more)
Gives an amazing insight into the life of a junior doctor in Britain. It is funny but also horrifying just how overworked and mistreated our Dr's are.
  
I love fairy tales, and I love Doctor Who, so this book was absolutely perfect. It's also a wonderful combination of retold familiar tales and original stories that are in the vein of fairy tales.

I found it fun that in most stories, I could clearly identify which Doctor was appearing in that story. I also appreciated that he is often not the main character.

It was so much fun to read that it was over far too quickly.

Real life
Violence, drugs, suicide. Welcome to the world of a prison doctor
The book is a real life account of a prison doctor who is treating patients in UK prisons. It tells of the violence, drugs and heart ache of the inmates and how she helps and copes with the day to day of prison life. Parts of it are truly disturbing but other parts made me smile. It is very moving and yet very readable

Book Favorite

"A first novel by a doctor, inspired by his own experiences in India, Ethiopia, and New York. It is an epic and beautifully crafted story, and I was so sad when it ended."

It clearly takes a while for everyone involved to get into the groove of the show. (0 more)
I hadn't watched Doctor Who since I was a kid with the Fourth Doctor (I didn't remember enough about the show since that time to inform my opinion going into New Who), and to be honest, I had a really hard time getting into the first couple of episodes, but friends kept telling me to stick with it, and I'm glad that I did. Chris Eccleston as Nine is my least favorite of the New Who Doctors, but I really feel it is very important to watch the show from the beginning of the reboot and not just skip to certain Doctors. There is a definite progression of story here and I don't think new watchers would appreciate the show as much if they skip right to 10 or 11 as I hear many people say should happen. Nine may not be the best Doctor (IMO), but he is important in the grand scheme of the show.
