I was super excited to see and download Call the Midwife. I read the author's other book "Kate" and as a keen "Call the Midwife" fan I was looking forward to reading this book. And am sooooo glad I did. The book does justice to the period drama and fills in the gaps I dint know about the characters and the historical backdrop of this time. As a Londoner, the East End holds a certain fascination for me, and to read about the levels of poverty and living conditions for many working class people at this time (which isnt really that long ago) was an eye-opener, which somehow I feel validates the story line of the tv series.  A great historical and period piece read. Thank you. I look forward to reading your next book!
