Posted October 8, 2018 Book Number: 15 Number Of Pages: 330 Book Title: Barnmorskan i East End - del 2 Author: Jennifer Worth Summary: While the first memoir focused more on the midwifery, this one is mainly about the people she got to know during her years in London. GhostMouse - I do too so when I saw my local library had these books I just had to read them. I think the show's captured the overall feel of the memoirs and not strayed too far away from them. Character wise especially sister Monica Joan is spot on; just as eccentric in the show as she's described in the memoirs. ^^ They're definitely worth a read. Share this post Link to post
