The Pull of the Stars by Emma Donoghue
5.0
The pull of the stars is not the kind of book I normally pick up. A tale of a nurse in 1918 battling the great flu in a maternity ward. 3 women stories end up tangled together changing their lives by the end. They face a lot of death especially surrounding pregnancy and newborns.
I was captivated after listening to the 1st 10 minutes of this book. This definitely brings out all the feels with Sadness and hope and grief. The main character has to come to terms with not only herself but these 2 other women's view of the world and also come to accept her brother and how he is after returning from war.
