I started this when I came home after call yesterday and finished it the same day, despite my usual post-call 5 hour nap. There's a frame narrative with the narrator looking back on his life from his position in the nursing home, and the scenes in the NH are really wonderfully written and characterized. (Despite the fact that the doctor prescibes amitriptylline to this 90 or 93 year-old; apparently she wasn't worried that it's on the Beers list nor was she worried about putting him into flagrant urinary retention). The story was interesting, though some of the characters were a little 2D. It's not a book I'd pick up to re-read, but definitely entertaining the first time through.

Contains Chapters 05 - 08: I loved this volume! I love the interaction between the characters and how the plot is developing. I can't wait to read the next volume.
