He looks me up and down, sneers a little. "With all due respect, what makes you think you"--he spits the word like it's a shit sandwich--"can get inside the mind of our man?" Juliet Pearce, director of nursing midwifery at the Isle of Wight NHS Trust, praised the show. She described it as "hilarious and heart-breaking" and a "reminder of the human emotions behind every tired, scared and fallible healthcare professional". [37] Jess Phillips, Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley, praised the series for highlighting the pressures of working in the NHS. [37] First of all, thank you to Berkley Publishing and Stephanie Wrobel for my ARC of this book that comes out on February 22, 2022. Welcome to Wisewood, where we keep your secrets if you keep ours.

Some people are struggling with anxiety, others drug abuse, but no matter the cause, Wisewood touts that it is the solution.

a b c Cumming, Ed (9 February 2022). "Ben Whishaw shines as spiky, golden-hearted doctor Adam Kay in This Is Going to Hurt". The Independent . Retrieved 5 March 2022. The story is told through two timelines. I did enjoy the unexpected twists that happened. The final reveal wasn't what I was expecting, I was hoping for a bit more, but I'd say this book was pretty good, entertaining and worth the read.

Beyond the Book

Osley, Richard (19 February 2021). "This is going to hurt: a glimpse of normal life as Ben Whishaw films drama in Marchmont Street". Camden New Journal . Retrieved 29 May 2021. Wisewood is a seemingly innocuous “retreat” on a deserted island, claiming to “completely transform” its guests after their six month stay. Upon further investigation, of course, it is quite obvious that Wisewood is a cult, with a manipulative leader and obliging followers. “This Might Hurt” not only explores the cult life, but also provides the reader with the history of Rebecca, its founder and leader, which was completely engaging for me and highly entertaining. Of course, the relationship between Kit and Natalie was dysfunctional, as a result of parental neglect and abuse, which leaves Kit wide open to be taken under Rebecca’s wing and groomed to be part of the Wisewood community. Jacobs, Meredith. " 'This Is Going to Hurt': First Look at Ben Whishaw's New Comedy-Drama (VIDEO)". TV Insider . Retrieved 1 July 2022. An entertaining, captivating thriller. I loved the ‘cultish’ vibe of Westwood as well as Natalie’s quest to ‘save’ her sister. This Might Hurt has all the ingredients of a great mystery. Fun, creepy and incredibly fast-paced. A ridiculously wry and absorbing thriller' AMY STUART

Especially the big revelation about Natalie’s part was a little bit disappointed and not so earth shatteringly surprising. The timelines and the details about Kit, young lady we don’t know her true identity who becomes fearless magician with the triggering impacts of her sadistic father and Kit’s POVs already fill your mind. You just get far away from the main story and you get tossed around the characters’ inner dilemmas, their fights with their inner demons. Their common point is both of them are emotionally disturbed characters who have different and a little delusional defense mechanisms to survive!A gut wrenching, propulsive story about vulnerability and power. It was impossible to put down' TARRYN FISHER
