The novels in the Cornish Midwife series are always poignant and emotionally charged. The stories of these women are told showing how grief can affect your life but also how the community and hope can help you to move on.
The story of Izzy made me cry buckets and smile. It's a story that talks about the circle of life, about losing and finding.
As I love this series I went for this book without checking the plot. As I'm not Christian I appreciated how the author deals with faith, a crisis of faith and never makes it in a preachy way.
Izzy and Noah are interesting characters, their story is a bit slow at times but kept my attention alive.
I was happy to travel to Port Agnes, catch up with the characters I already knew and met some new.
Jo Bartlett delivers a compelling, emotionally charged, and engrossing novel, heartbreaking at times and life affirming.
A bitter-sweet story that I strongly recommend as it kept me reading one afternoon.
