2008-07-29 Best book I've read in a long time

I love reading and frequently devour a book a day on holiday. I've recently had ample time to read after a holiday and recuperation from an operation. This was probably my favourite book out of all the ones I've read in that time. The openness of the women was surprising for the period, for instance how they thought you could conceive a girl rather than a boy. It was an eye opener and I could see how my Grand Parents may have lived. I've lent this book to my Mum and hope she enjoys it as much as I did. A really lovely read and I would recommend to anyone who is interested in people and/or period books.
