A Love Story

By: Leah Hazard

Narrated by: Jessie Buckley

For fans of Emily Henry and Abby Jimenez, The Anatomy of Us is the debut novel by Sunday Times bestseller and renowned midwife Leah Hazard, performed by Academy Award nominee Jessie Buckley.

It’s New Year’s Eve in Edinburgh’s biggest hospital, and Dr. Becca Armitage is struggling. After a devastating shift in the emergency room leaves her questioning everything, she signs herself off work and spirals into depression. Enter Dr. Andrew Maitland – charming, wealthy and, according to Becca, the Most Beautiful Man in the World. As they begin an unexpected romance, Becca finds herself lying to maintain the image of the put-together doctor Andrew thinks she is. But Andrew has secrets of his own. As their relationship deepens, past wounds and current truths threaten to derail their budding connection. Can two imperfect people find a way to be honest with each other, and themselves?

The Anatomy of Us is a moving story about medicine, self-acceptance, and the messy reality of falling in love. By turns hilarious and heart-breaking, it is an intimate exploration of what it means to be human in all our glorious imperfections.

Funny and relatable

What a funny,and in some instances, relatable story. I’ll definitely recommend it to my friends

Great story

As a person who has gone through depression, I can say that the writer definitely portray the feeling very well. The story is very good, but I do agree that an epilogue would have been nice. The narration was outstanding.

Entertaining!

This book was incredibly performed and very enjoyable writing! Very fast listen, won’t want to put it down. Fun!

Not particularly good

While the narration was good, the story was exhausting. I will read just about everything and this does qualify as that. It just ended so abruptly it left me a bit peeved. The body was a slog and for it to just end while things might be looking up for the characters was disappointing. It’s like the author just got tired.

Depressing

I thought this was depressing. Certain parts were funny. Narration was good and the story line did not have huge gaps.
