"Nothing Personal" is fast-paced and very suspenseful, with twists at the end of most every chapter. The protagonist is an ER RN, and the book is terrifyingly precise in its view of nursing and healthcare today. This was refreshing compared to the misconceptions most people have in regard to nurses and their role. I couldn't put it down.

I highly recommend this book to anyone, but especially to all other nurses out there who can appreciate what it's really like in the front lines of health care today. The story is good, and it keeps you guessing. If you don't have any medical background, you will still love this book. But if you do, you will pass it along- as I did- to all of your coworkers. The characters are strong, especially the title character Kate Manion.

This story about a trauma nurse is a fine read. Very good use of the English language. (I get turned off by supposedly well educated characters who use bad grammar all the time.)
There's a fine romance in this book, and it doesn't start with sparks and magnetism on the first page. You do know what I mean. All in all, it's a well done story that kept me puzzled until the last and also kept me pulling for Kate. I do wish she hadn't felt the need to keep trying to put herself at risk, but then I guess I'm just a bit cowardly in that way. I'm no heroine. I'll be looking for more from Eileen Dreyer.

This hospital mystery was a little slow to start, but once the story got underway, I liked it quite a bit! The plot had several twists and turns - I certainly was not able to predict "whodunit"! It was a fun read and I think I will definitely enjoy reading other books by this author!

This story is interesting, but I dislike the main character. She judges everyone, and each fail to come to her high standards. She swears like a dockworker, not a nurse, it gets in the way of the story
