Prime of Life by P.D. Bekendam Review

Ben used to be a cardiothoracic surgeon before he suddenly abandoned his career and became a janitor at a retirement facility. Now, other than dealing with minor problems such as an unhealthy obsession with prime numbers, an inept boss, and a feud between two cantankerous retirees, he lives a relatively stress-free life. There is even hope for romance when an attractive podiatrist shows an interest in him. But it is not long before his past catches up with him and his carefully protected world begins to unravel. Filled with humor and quirky characters, Prime of Life delivers a satisfying and entertaining read.


ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Author and practicing eye surgeon, Dr. Bekendam is happily married and the proud father of two boys. Proceeds from his writing go to help fund his activities in developing countries as he works to bring cataract surgery to the needlessly blind. Prime of Life is his debut novel.

My review:

This is a fun read about having a new job and thinking that you can have a new life. However you can not be who you are in the present without your past. Ben thought e had what he wanted. However he soon realizes that rather than changing his whole life he needs to remember his past. I am giving this book a 3/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
