I'm not sure if it was the writing or the translation that felt a bit weak, and maybe the romance was a bit too much for me but this was just an average 3-star read for me.

Dublin, World War I and Spanish flu epidemic. Nurse / midwife Julia Power works on a maternity / fever ward with women sick with the flu and giving birth.
It was quite interesting to read as a nurse and primigravida myself 😄 I enjoyed both the medical aspects and the characters.
Current #audiostitching project: still unrecognizable 😅

Frannie is a house-girl at a Jamaican estate. She is transported to London by her master who gives her away as a gift to a friend. She becomes a maid in the house of a rich and influential man. But then one day she's woken up by police and accused of murder.
This book was a bit weird and unrealistic at times, but all in all good.
⭐⭐⭐☆☆

I‘ve read only three titles of the Narnia series, and only two of C.S. Lewis‘s non-fiction books. I watched Shadowlands once and didn‘t really enjoy it. I never visited Oxford, despite living in Britain for 22 years. What do I know about the former Atheist turned Christian? How much would I need to know in order to enjoy Becoming Mrs. Lewis? #Christfic #hisfic
