The Nightingale Girls by Donna Douglas

The Nightingale Girls by Donna DouglasI really liked this. At first I wasn't sure if I would. I wanted more hospital/patient stories and less nurse stories but hello, look at the title. It is a book about three student NURSES in 1930s East End London.

It is a bit of a soap opera, fans of 'Strong Medicine' (not a book, I know but you get the idea) and ' Call The Midwife' will like this. I found myself getting quite engrossed in their lives and had a hard time putting the last half of the book down. (In fact, as soon as I turned the last page I grabbed the next book in the series and bookmarked the first chapter).

There are love interests in the book but everything is kept clean which I appreciated.

Bottom line: Well worth the read and pretty absorbing.

CONTENT:

SEX: (view spoiler)
VIOLENCE: Not an issue
PROFANITY : Mild (B, D, H)

MY RATING : PG-13

*I received a free ebook from Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion
