With this book taking place in a hospital there is no avoiding detailed descriptions of all sorts of patients with all sorts of conditions and because she is researching and actively interacting with patients. The main character does take on a passion project about how people of color might be treated differently when they come to seek care at a medical institution after she seesbedtimesandbooks's review

I enjoyed the plot with the FMC being in her 3rd year of med school and waiting to be matched for residency. I liked how the author brought in systemic issues within race for patients that has an impact on how they are treated and cared.
I struggled with the romance in this book because both of the MCs are in their early 20s and act like it. Nothing wrong with that but with the complex issues they were going through it was a little frustrating.
