dark emotional informative sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

3.5

Not sure how to rate this one just yet. 
I didn’t know much about this book going in, so I didn’t know if there was going to be any spice and/or cussing. However, I enjoy stories about or relating to midwifery. I had mixed feelings about The German Midwife as I was reading, and I wasn’t sure how I liked the direction was going about 2/3 of the way through. Overall, I enjoyed this. 

Mild cussing
Some spice, fade to black
