The Anatomy Lesson

2/5 stars

I really felt bad for not liking this book due to the amount of time and research the author placed into this book. Overall I understand that this was well researched but that unfortunately did not translate into the writing.

It is possible that the reason it wasn't well executed is due to their style of writing. I personally had a hard time differentiating the perspectives of the different characters in the book. It was clearer in the beginning but as it progressed it just got harder and harder.

I liked the lengthy descriptions at first especially when it was the perspective of the prisoner and the person who carried out the dissection (forgot his name). Although I feel like it was overdone as this also was done with the rest of the perspectives.

Honestly, I am not sure if I would ever recommend this book.
