The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness and Murder Paperback – Import, 3 July 2014

This is for all those who like real life works. A must read but requires an understanding about how the US works.

Not a long book but plodded along and amateurish writing sadly. Will wait for Netflix adaptation as the story itself is very interesting.

Dreadful writing. No structure whatsoever. It was just like a boring chore reading it. Most disappointed. Would'nt recommend.

I usually enjoy this kind of book and was looking forward to reading it based on previous reviews, however I was very disappointed and cannot believe I read the same book! I found it to be very repetitive and poorly written in parts. I was interested in how the perpetrator had obtained the drugs etc but felt that it was very poorly explained and I feel none the wiser as to how he got away with it for so long. The hospital and police investigations had the potential to be fascinating but weren't dealt with in much depth at all. I appreciate that the murders took place over a long time span so there was a lot to cover but the book felt rushed and vague and could have been so much better.

This book was so well written, couldn't put it down & disappointed when I finished it. Seems almost unbelievable that there are nurses that are able to move from hospital to hospital with ease and no questions asked about history. The reputation of hospitals appears more important to to management than the safety of patients & many people should feel responsible that a nurse has got away with so many murders.

This isn't a True Crime book, just marketed as one. It reads more like a (very) long article from The New Yorker or Vanity Fair. Glib, overly-stylized, and just a chore to read.
