I picked this book up to read only because I heard of it on a mom blog, and thought I'll check it out. It was well worth it! I could not put it down the story follows a midwife in London and her training and she gives accounts of the births and also a look into the nuns lives of where she stayed, she wrote this book with alot of heart and I really enjoyed it.
