1The Emperor of All Maladies	The Emperor of All Maladies	Siddhartha Mukherjee	Medical history	Completed	2	Orange Line, seated	Stable, dense prose, no acute distress	Cy Young of oncology writing. Long innings but worth it.
2The Things They Carried	The Things They Carried	Tim O'Brien	War fiction	Completed	4	Jamaica Pond bench	Elevated heart rate, expected	Batting .400 every time I revisit it. Rare.
3Being Mortal	Being Mortal	Atul Gawande	Medical nonfiction	Completed	1	Break room, third floor	Afebrile, occasionally gutted	Required reading for anyone who charts end-of-life goals.
4The Boys of Summer	The Boys of Summer	Roger Kahn	Baseball memoir	Completed	5	Couch, bourbon adjacent	Nostalgic tachycardia	Dodgers made me cry for a team I never watched. Elite.
5Educated	Educated	Tara Westover	Memoir	Completed	1	Night shift, waiting room	BP up, worth it	No-hitter of a memoir. Don't start it before a shift.
6Ball Four	Ball Four	Jim Bouton	Baseball diary	Completed	6	Porch, JP	Chronic condition, no cure needed	Still the OG clubhouse tell-all. Ages like the bourbon I'm rationing.
7When Breath Becomes Air	When Breath Becomes Air	Paul Kalanithi	Memoir	Completed	2	T, standing room only	Guarded, tears documented	DNR conversations get easier after this one. Devastating, necessary.
8This Is Your Mind on Plants	This Is Your Mind on Plants	Michael Pollan	Science nonfiction	Completed	1	Arnold Arboretum, a bench	Curious, no adverse reaction	Pharmacology with better anecdotes than my med school notes.
9The Art of Fielding	The Art of Fielding	Chad Harbach	Literary fiction	Completed	2	Back porch, extra innings	Steady, occasional gasp	The yips as literary device. Somehow it works, error and all.
10Complications	Complications	Atul Gawande	Medical essays	Completed	3	Charting room, lunch break	Alert, oriented, slightly smug	The essay collection I hand to every new grad on the unit.
