BOOK OF THE YEAR Books Are My Bag Readers' Awards

'If you read one book this year, make it this one' Daily Express

97-hour weeks. Life and death decisions. A constant tsunami of bodily fluids. And the hospital parking meter earns more money than you.

Welcome to the life of a junior doctor.

Scribbled in secret after endless days, sleepless nights and missed weekends, Adam Kay's diaries provide a no-holds-barred account of his time on the NHS front line. Hilarious, horrifying and heartbreaking, this is everything you wanted to know - and more than a few things you didn't - about life on and off the hospital ward.

'So funny and important it should be given out on prescription' Guardian

'Laugh-out-loud funny and heartbreakingly sad' Jonathan Ross

'At once hilarious and shocking, moving and irreverent, This is Going to Hurt is a book that demands to be read' Maggie O'Farrell

INCLUDES BONUS DIARY ENTRIES AND A NEW AFTERWORD BY THE AUTHOR

Kritik

I'd prescribe this book to anyone and everyone. It's laugh-out-loud funny, heartbreakingly sad and gives you the lowdown on what it's like to be holding it together while serving on the front line of our beloved but beleaguered NHS. It's wonderful Jonathan Ross
