Over the next ten years, 40 to 60 million people in this country will be admitted to the ICU. Most of these hospitalizations will be sudden, unexpected, and harrowing experiences that can alter patients and their families physically and emotionally, with effects that endure for years. In this rich blend of science, medical history, profoundly humane patient stories, and personal reflection, Dr. Wes Ely describes his mission to prevent patients from being inadvertently harmed by the technology that is keeping them alive.

If you could sum up Charmer: A Ladies' Man and His Victims in three words, what would they be?
Good read if you can tolerate not being aggressive about a real problem
Who was your favorite character and why?
All good, no favorite
What does Kevin Pierce bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
EVERYTHING...... This man is a genius. I first see which books he has narrated, and then I choose.
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
How easy it is to ignore and do nothing about a serious problem

Reeve LeClaire is a college student, dammit, not Daryl Wayne Flint's victim. Not anymore-not when Reeve is finally recovering a life of her own after four years of captivity. Flint is safely locked up in Olshaker Psychiatric Hospital, where he belongs. He is walking the grounds of the forensic unit, performing his strange but apparently harmless rituals. It seems that he is still suffering the effects of the head injury he suffered in the car crash that freed Reeve seven years ago. Post-concussive syndrome, they call it.

too dramatic
Revisado: 09-15-15
What did you like best about What Doesn't Kill Her? What did you like least?
This was alittle too elementry for my taste. It was quite drawn out and could have been wrapped up in 6 hours instead of 11. Narrator was very hammy. Too theatrical for me.
What three words best describe Christina Delaine’s voice?
ordinary

"A Rose for Her Grave" - the principal story of this collection - vividly recreates the cautionary tale of Randy Roth, a misogynistic sociopath from the Pacific Northwest whose rage was directed primarily at women and children. Addicted to his own greed, Roth exercised a powerful aura of control over his victims, using his ability to charm and boyish good looks to lower their defenses. By the time they saw the reality of the madness in his eyes, it was usually too late.
