This fictional story sounds interesting in that it has a little bit of everything: mystery, romance, humor, and educational. It's been added to my reading list. Great review!

This seems to be an intensely emotional book. Dr. Lucas' dedication is very admirable. The author managed to deliver a novel with a serious topic and a lot of humor. Thanks for this nice review!

Thank you for sharing your detailed review of "Mediary ASIN B0BVT7HTTW" by E.W. Johnson, M.D. It's great to hear that the book captivated you with its assortment of events and themes of friendship, love, teamwork, faith, scientific inquiry, and cooperation. The character development, particularly with Lucas and Kristen, seems to have resonated with you, and the presence of Father Doyle as a crucial figure added depth to the story.

Losing loved ones due to chronic diseases can be heartbreaking. I understand Dr. Lucas' act of promising to find a cure for cancer when he lost his mother. I really hope he was finally able to keep his promise. This sounds like a sad yet intriguing book.

It'll be great to read a book by this author that isn't part of the Dr. Sean Nolan series. This sounds like a great read; pity about the errors and the lackluster ending, though. However, as a fan of this author, I will add this to my list. If you're keen to read more, the Sean Nolan series of books are excellent.

I loved the summary at the beginning, quite well thought out. I liked the character description as well, I love me a character with a wicket sense of humour and a sharp tongue. Great review!

Lucas has a selfless zeal in his pursuit of a cancer treatment. And it's a stroke of luck to have Kristen and Doyle! The book's concept is clever. I mistakenly believed that it was solely focused on science, but there is also romance. I wasn't particularly like sci-fi novels, but this review was so excellent and beautifully written that it kept me reading. I also value the review's writing abilities.

You lost me at "a 7-year-old with brain cancer." I'm not sure that this is the kind of book that I would like to read. I'm curious where the romance element comes into play when dealing with such an emotional topic as cancer, but not curious enough to want to read it.

The portrayal of characters with intellectual mindsets seems fabulous since the theme of this novel revolves around research for finding a cure for all types of cancer. I hope Lucas's research will be successful and he fulfills his promise.

Mediary is a fictionalize tale of a young man named Lucas who promised his dying mom that he would find the cure for the cancer that killed her. In his quest, he would meet Kristen. Will Kristen help him find a cure? It's a worthwhile read. Thanks for your review.

Oh wow a medical infused novel and then a topic I have dear to my heart. I can just understand why he made the promise to find a cure when his mother passed way of cancer. That's how I felt when I lost my sister to the terrible 'C'. I'm super excited to read this and I can't wait to see if he actually succeed in curing Kaitlin's cancer. Thanks for a wonderful review.

This review makes me want to start reading immediately. Could he cure Kaitlyn? Even though the mice came back negative, did they have other side effects? I need answers. My brain is running wild. Now I’m running to Amazon to get started! Amazing review :).

This sounds like a really interesting read based on your review. I'm sure medical professionals and lay people like myself would enjoy it. I do love a good love story and stories with twists and turns. I sincerely hope everything works out and everybody has a happy ending.
The topic of cancer can be a really rough one for many people but this sounds like it might tackle the awfulness of the disease with some light hearted romance as well.

Latest Review: A Dream For Peace by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah

Post by Hazel Arnaiz »

Despite the many divergences between science and religion, this book appears to show where these two schools of thought agree. That is, in bringing hope to those suffering from a terminal illness. It is a thought-provoking story for fans of medical fiction.

Books with medical terminologies and research require an open mind, especially for readers who have suffered a similar experience. This book sounds like a great one, although it feels like it has lots of characters involved. I sure wouldn't mind reading it. Great work.
