Today, April 23rd 2014, is once again World Book Night!! I love WBN, and look forward to it each year/


This year the book I was given is Confessions of a GP by Benjamin Daniels. I was so glad this book was on the list as I remember very well reading it! I was in the hospital waiting room for a long time while my other half was having some tests done. I remember the book making me laugh out loud, an I mean to the point that other people were looking at me! Even the receptionist commented that I must be reading something funny.  This is why I chose this book. I think everyone needs to have something to make them smile, therefore I will be giving this book out with a smile on my face :)
