Brain Damage

Full disclosure - I love Freida McFadden. She writes characters with an inner monologue that truly makes me laugh. Almost like she has channeled me and my rando sense of humor. Additionally, being a fan of her writing, I checked out her bio. The author is a medical doctor. And an incredible writer. I am in awe.
Brain Damage was a fantastic book. Main character, Charly McKenna is a successful dermatologist, single, until she meets THE PERFECT MAN. Uh huh. You know that's never the case, right? We spend most of our time with Charly during her recovery from a gunshot wound to the head. This is the magic of the book - how interesting can days and days of rehab be for a reader? A lot. The author/doctor does a great job of making this period interesting, sad, emotional, funny....all the feels. I do not expect my heart to literally ache when reading a domestic thriller, but I became invested in Charly and the other patients.
And I loved the ending.
