feel good story

it was alot different than I thought. it should of been titled a day or life of a nurse with a little romance added.but regardless it was a feel good story

Relatable for nurses

This was very relatable as a nurse, but I'm not sure how anyone not in any way associated with the medical field will feel about it. The story was eh, it was mostly like a reporting of the main character's days and experiences, rather than a story. I didn't hate it, but I also don't think I would read another in the series, because I read for mental entertainment. I applaud anyone who can write and finish a book, and it was not bad. I know this isn't a glowing review, but I try to be as honest as I can be, while still being respectful of the author's efforts.

End of life comforts.

Heartwarming. Real to life. Nursing at it's best and at it's worst. The importance of love. End of life issues. End of life comforts. This book is very slow, but very emotional and entertaining.
I listened to an Audible version of this book. The narrator did a wonderful job of relaying this story. It was a little easier because the story is told by nurse Ellie. So not too many other voices were required.

Worth adding to your library!

While this book felt like someone was reading from a journal, instead of having us be a fly on the wall during the events, I do find myself drawn to stories regarding personal growth. I liked the story well enough to wish I could've experienced the events through page instead of informed about them. This is the second book, by this author, I have listened to, and I still stand by my first assessment of them. The author shows a lot of potential for future books, and I look forward to reading them.

secrets abound

I loved this read. I wouldn't categorize this as a romance read but oh - this one pulled at my heart strings. Ellie is a great character, one written so that regardless of our lives we can all somehow relate to in some way - and that is a testament to what a great writer Spade is! The narration while good was stilted in places and could have been a bit smoother but still I enjoyed the tone she was able to give to Ellie. I loved the twists, mystery man was a great surprise I didn't see coming and I absolutely am in love with Archer who is beyond trusting, understanding and loving! I love the names that Ellie has for her patients and loved each of their stories...a wonderful read that I guarantee will pull at anyone's heart!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Fantastic!

I loved this story! How it shows that there are still good people with kindness in their hearts.

I thought this Book was great!

The narration was utter perfection, it really brought the book to life in a thrilling and passionate way.

There is the perfect amount of angst and romance to keep you hooked.

I loved how their relationship unfolded so we could see these amazing characters grow in ways you never expected.

I would suggest picking up a copy asap, you will not be disappointed.

Enjoyable

The Wish Lists (Nursing Diaries, #1), my first read from author J.M. Spade. Well-written & enjoyable medical fiction, the first in a series. I was been given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reading & reviewing it. Sharmila Devar ’s talented narration adds to the book's enjoyment. I look forward to reading more in this series, the next being Surgical Complications: A Sweet Nursing Novella (Nursing Diaries, #2). (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Good storyline but a bit long for my taste

I liked the overall storyline of this book. It was heartfelt and the main character overcame hardships. It had minimal foul language and love scenes were kept quick without too much detail. I usually prefer quicker reads with a simple HEA love story. It took a long time for me to get through it as things were drawn out and certain topics felt left up in the air. By the end things were explained but it just didn’t seem to flow enough to keep my interest. The narrator did well.

Touching story

This is my first experience reading something by this author and I really enjoyed it. It's a really well-written story full of emotion and touched me in so many ways. I really enjoyed listening to this as the narrator did a nice job of bringing all the emotion and characters to life and differentiating each personality. Ellie's life was going really well, and then the unthinkable happens. It's a touching story that will really warm your heart and give you all the feels. A beautiful story that I am glad to have had the opportunity to listen to.
