A review by jmarchek
The Pull of the Stars by Emma Donoghue

3.0

It took me forever to finish this book. It's a really slow story that takes place over the course of maybe 3 days. Set during the Spanish Flu pandemic in Dublin at a maternity hospital. If you can make it through the first 2/3rd, the final 1/3 will fly by. Emma Donoghue is a great writer, but I don't want to dwell in so much depth on the laboring births in those times.
