This was a pretty good book. It centers around two college volunteers, Diana and Seth, and their experience in an ER. It also tells of several other peoples stories, Jersey a college student, Roo a young mother and her twins, Alec a seventeen year old and Anna Maria and her two younger siblings. It really a incite into an ER.
I think it would be exciting to be apart of such a fast past world but I don't know if I would be able to keep up.

I loved this as a teen and I now have it on my Kindle. fascinated me. If you enjoy medical fiction and a good story, than this is a great book to read!
this book is good for someone that like emergency room or medical related items. Its a good book for people that like suspence and adventure. I wouldn't recommend this to someone that has a problem reading big words. This book in a way has three stories in one read it to find out it happens.
This book is about a emergency room and people that surround it.
