The Antidote for Everything
The Antidote for Everything | Kimmery Martin
28 posts | 14 read | 20 to read
"Georgia Brown's profession as a urologist requires her to interact with plenty of naked people, but her romantic prospects have fizzled. The single most important person in her life is her friend, Jonah Tsukada, a funny, empathetic family medicine doctor who works at the same hospital in Charleston, South Carolina, and who has become as close as family to her. Just after Georgia leaves the country for a medical conference, she hears startling news from Jonah- the hospital intends to fire doctors who provide medical care for transgender patients. Disturbed by the hospital's actions, the two of them concoct a plan to persuade the board to reverse its decision about placing limitations on patient care. But when the strategy spirals out of control, both Georgia and Jonah risk their careers and their friendship in a last-ditch effort to regain the right to treat their patients"--

Pickpick

Georgia is a urologist in the south. She is fiercely independent, a fact her bosses hate, and her best friend Jonah loves. When one of their careers is on the line Georgia struggles with making the right decisions...

This one sucked me in right away, the characters feel so alive. It also gives voice to some very serious subject matter. Themes include suicide attempt, addiction, discrimination, and sexual harrassment.

Paper is king and queen. I do like nonfiction audiobooks, if it's fiction I need it to be something really familiar like Harry Potter or princess diaries. Most read genre is: thriller/romance. For all time it's YA. #wondrouswednesday

#wondrouswednesday purpose comes in many forms: gardening, crafting, reading, spending time with people that matter. Lately I am really enjoying listening to take two of the #houseofhalliwell podcast and #iamallin podcast.

That I'm enjoying the above book so far.

That one of the episodes Shannen Doherty was able to do for #houseofhalliwell podcast was dead man dating. Her perspective on this episode was fantastic to hear.

The heat has finally broken with some much needed rain.

My tomato plant has much bounty just waiting for them to finish ripening.

I was able to get in to my dentist a few weeks ago to have a cavity handled. #fivejoysfriday

This book is just what I need right now. Slightly fluffy, a little vapid, and completely fascinating. Knowing Martin it will get more tangled and less fluffy as it goes on.

Eh, the best part of this book was the cover. I thought it was about 100 pages too long and the author couldn't seem to figure out which storyline she wanted to focus on. I liked the characters well enough until I found out the scheme that they were up to near the end. Idk, I'm just surprised this book has a 100% rating on Litsy. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood or too picky. 😂

Rachel.Rencher Ope, well it doesn't have a 100% rating anymore. 😬 I guess only a few people had rated it, lol! 5mo

Okay but how can you not love a book with an opening line like this:

"Most women did not begin their days by stabbing a man in the scrotum, but Georgia Brown was not most women." ??

Finally finished my #bookspin for November. This is the 2nd novel by Martin, pictured here a few weeks ago at the KY Book Fair.
This is the story of Jonah & Georgia and revolves around the fight to medically treat LGBTQ, specifically transgender patients. Best part of the story is the friendship between the MC‘s, from Jonah micromanaging Georgia‘s love life to how they take care of each other. G has a romance with another character. TW in comment

This quote from an ARC copy led me down a Goggle rabbit - or should I say mole? - hole. Did you know moles are polydactyls?

Georgia is a urologist at a practice in Charleston when she saves a man's life on a plane. Meanwhile her best friend at work finds his patients are being told they are no longer welcome at the practice. And in a state where anyone can refuse service based on judgments on sexual orientation, there's nothing Jonah or Georgia can do. The author, an emergency doctor in the south, knows the daily lives of doctors and it shows.⤵️

ReadingEnvy I have a copy of this novel from the publisher through netgalley and it comes out February 18. 5y
