My Name Is Mary Sutter by Robin Oliveira

4.0

---

I'm not normally a fan of historical fiction, but this book was really interesting. The characters were well defined and interesting and the relationships were tealistic given the horrors of the Civil War highlighted in the story. Mary's determination and struggle in being a midwife and trying to become a surgeon felt real and made for an inspiring tale of triumph and heartbreak. Overall an intriguing, inspiring read.
