    This book was just recommended to me last week by a friend. It’s on my list. What do you think so far?

    I just recently finished Small Great Things by Jodi Piccoult and The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas which I loved. Currently reading Happiness by Heather Harpham for book club.

    I just finished it and LOVED it. Read with a box of tissues.

      Worth the time. I do plan on finishing it. It’s probably even more captivating if you’re not in a household with a physician, though. A lot of his med school/training stories feel pretty familiar. 😄

        Exactly what I meant. It seems sort of like people think since I married a physician I must want to read every book that comes out about them. Some I really have enjoyed, and others, eh. I'm actually not that interested in medicine in general, but some books are worth the read anyway. Also, I found doctor books a lot more interesting before they were my life.

        Hot Lights, Cold Steel was/is a good read, but when it's me taking the kids to church alone, or putting them to bed before he gets home it seems like a less interesting book. Luckily I read it when we were dating and he had just been accepted to medical school but hadn't started it.

          LOVE Ryder's book on Bullet Journal Method. I've been using the method for a little over 4.5 years and it's completely transformed my life. The book explains it perfectly and gives more depth to things I was already doing. It's terrific! You can probably find my thread about BuJo in the Grand Rounds forum. I might start another soon because I'm currently obsessed with how much it's added to my life.

            Awesome! I'll have to look for your posts on it. I'm not sure I can be as artsy as the neat ones I've seen. I'm hoping it can still make me happy if it's pretty blah, because I'm not willing to put the effort into making it look as awesome as bloggers and youtubers do.

              [MENTION=5819]Elchorrito[/MENTION] Ha. My BuJo is not artistic at all. Simply functional, although I bought stencils this year. Really going to spice it up. Mine reminds me of the tidy, organized lab journals of my past.

                  I’m not even kidding. It’s absolutely acceptable to keep a minimalistic, essentials-only, boring BuJo. As long as it works for you.

                    Yup. Mine is totally boring-looking, too, but it does its job, which is to get things on paper in one place, reasonably organized, so I don't have to remember things. Picture shows some typical pages, I'm still in the process of moving things over to my new one for the new year (my 4th!). It doesn't have to be pretty.
