Roxanne (13 KP) rated My Mini Midwife: Everything You Need to Know About Pregnancy and Birth in Books

Nov 9, 2018

This book is all you need for everything you need or want to know about you and your bump. I would recommend this to every pregnant lady. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because it is aimed at the 'traditional' pregnancy with the 'traditional' family plan...not with any support to an unplanned pregnancy or perhaps a single mother to be. This is probably not intentionally one sided but it would have been even more helpful with some information perhaps dedicated to a family which may not necessarily be seen as 'the norm'.

I didn't think things could get any better after the first book but I have to say that this one is even better than the first one, I was very happily surprised I must say. It was more intense, it was more gruesome and the character development was just brilliant. I love the developing relationship between the two main characters, their relationship is very realistic and troublesome which keeps things very interesting. I am very much looking forward to the next one in the series as I think (after reading this one) it's going to get even better! 5 stars from me!

_____ <b>5 'It Could Be You' Stars </b>

This book totally messed with my head! I loved it!

I'll admit it's a strange one and I haven't read anything like it before so to me it's definitely original. It's also very creepy and very tense. The author is great at building tension, it starts from the very first page and doesn't let you go until the end...even then you'll be thinking about it with your night-light on.
It's pretty scary to think this kind of thing happens in real life...talk about nightmare neighbours.

Dani/Jada's story made three of these stars happen alone. Her story just tugged so much at my heart, and I need to hear more of this. The other star is for Lor and Jo. I really enjoy their few chapters! Mac and Barrons are becoming very repetitive. I loved them in the first 5 books, but now, I just feel like Mac repeats herself over and over and rambles about the same things over and over. But, overall, I feel this book is about to lead up to something big in the next one! Or maybe it was just that cliffhanger.

4.5 stars.

It would have been 5 if not for that proper cliffhanger ending.

It was all sweetness and light and rainbows and butterfies for me throughout, though it drove me mad a few times with how oblivious they both were to each others feelings, but that end bit! So dark and cliffhanger-y. I even had to carry on into the sneak peek for the next book just to try and get some answers but nope, cut off before we find out if everyone is okay. Bloody hell!

Now i really need to read book 2 to see what happens next.

WOWOWOW. I picked up this book after a million recommendations from tiktok of all places, and it did not disappoint. I waited until I'd finished the current books in the series to review any, and I can say that this is my least favorite of the series, but still earns 5 stars easily for me! If you're having a hard time getting into it, I guarantee it gets better. I fell in love with the characters in this series. The world building is amazing, and this has easily become my favorite series. So thankful to have come across this.
