Mont Reid is too much information for review but its a good reference to have around.

If you like Q and A style texts the Surg Recall is great, I would get that book before I got any others.

And I should add...holy crap!

Surgical Recall is good for 'pimping' (when doctors ask you questions) but OK for exams. Essentials of General Surgery by Lawrence is recommended to students, but I found it to be a very boring text book. Current Surgical Diagonsis and Treatment would be a good way to go step by step through a disease, or the NMS Casebook since you seem to like that series. Case Files: General Surgery is good for medical student exams as well.
