LIFE SUPPORT

Rating:
Summary: A Good Medical Thriller
Review: I liked this book, but I have to admit I was a bit dissappointed. Life Support has a very sturdy and entertaining story line, but it lacks some of the insightfulness of either Crichton or Preston. All in all a good Medical Thriller, but nothing exceptional in my opinion.

Rating:
Summary: Top notch suspense! Better than Harvest!
Review: I read this book in one day. Ms. Gerritsen has become a master of the medical suspense novel. I can't wait to read "Bloodstream", which I have already purchased!

Rating:
Summary: Was suprised by this book
Review: I read this book in two nights-it was fast paced from the beginning, I really like Toby the heroine, you definietly feel her frustrations!!! I couldn't wait to read what happened next, definitely worth reading if you like suspence and medical mysteries.

Summary: Good Book- Medical Thriller
Review: I really thoroughly enjoyed this book. Toby was a good main character to the problems that were faced in the ER. It was interesting how dr. carl wallenberg was opposing her so much of the time! To find out more, read the book!

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining, but too much angst.
Review: I swear, if something ELSE wrong happened to this woman I was going to throw the book against the wall! For heaven's sake! I can't stand reading repeated angst and this book is chock full of it. Mom has Alzheimers, sisters don't get along, then everything bad happens. It was almost too much. The medical information was almost completely spot on (I caught one goof where she mistook an H&E stain for a PAS stain) and lots of fun to read, though. So, if you can stand a whole lot of angst in your medical thriller, go for it, she's still a lot of fun.

Rating:
Summary: Most exciting book I have read so far.
Review: I thought this was a terrific thriller. I could not put it down. One review on the cover says "be prepared to drop all your obligations until you finish". I found this to be very true. I very much enjoyed and I believe you will too.

Review: If you enjoy medical thrillers, then you should like this book. Dr. Toby Harper works the ER night shift and admits a patient who is delirious and has tremors that are uncontrollable. She is interrupted by another emergency and when she returns to her patient he is gone. Then other patients turn up with similar symptoms and deaths and Toby is worried there is an epidemic starting, but when she tries to investigate, she is blocked, and then problems at home arise with the health of her mother who has alzheimers disease. It looks like her mother was being poisened. She is put on the police's suspect list. Keeps you interested till the end.

Summary: just o.k
Review: Just not one of her best books. I read some of her other books. I would tell anyone thinking about reading her to read either The Surgeon or Gravity both are better. After that, read this if you all would like. Only for true for fans of the author.
