Just Finished Reading: Just Like Someone Without Mental Illness Only More So by Mark Vonnegut

His writing style is interesting, but a little frustrating - he is able to tell a story well, and at the same time leave out or allude to things that are coming in such a way that you want to keep reading. A page-turner of a memoir. And somehow the writing seems oddly incomplete - some of the sentences don't seem to be complete somehow, but they are. I don't know how he does that, and don't love it.

The other unsettling thing was that he's a pediatrician and keeps going off on little rants about how bad the health care system is now, compared to when he started as a doctor, which makes me think that things really are bad - I didn't have the basis for comparison that he does. And, a little unsettling for a doctor to have the same sense of frustration I do. Shouldn't doctors have a little more control over the situation? Guess not.

Anywho - there are lots of good parts, too, so overall a recommend. :)
