The midwife of hope river by patricia harman

Not only that, she takes on a girl, Bitsy, who was forced to leave her employer in the financial crisis. Times are hard for her, she's lonely and isolated, living in the country with no electricity and often doesn't get paid. Her mentor and friend has recently died and Patience continues on her own, not feeling very confident in her skills. As the history of her rebellious, sad and not entirely innocent life unfolds, she intertwines stories of the mothers and babies that she delivers. Patience Murphy is a rural midwife in West Virginia during the Depression. If you like birth stories you'll love this book. So here's a short review, in case you're looking for something to read. But I really enjoyed The Midwife of Hope River. Back in the days of small babies breastfeeding lots, I managed to read a few books on my iPhone (I love the kindle app). If I do, I try and read them in spanish, so reading in english is a real luxury.

I don't really get much time to read novels these days.
