The early mornings, the late nights, the patients, the coworkers. You love your role as a nurse, but you also cherish every single second of your free time. When you do have a moment alone to clear your head and get ready to take on another crazy day, there’s nothing like a great book to help decompress. It’s fun to get lost in a story and forget anything that may be bothering you. While there are many great pieces of literature about nursing, we’ve put together a short list for you to reference when you need something light, humorous, or inspiring. So find a quiet corner (if you can) and reward yourself for all the hard work you do by curling up with a great book.
Another top recommended book by Buxman, this book was written to provide amusement, humor, and an openness to appreciating life’s absurdities. This is an insightful read when trying to relax and reflect on your own life as a nurse and how to enjoy it the best you can. This read can help leave you refreshed and give you a revitalized perspective when you walk back into those hospital halls.
