Read all my reviews on http://urlphantomhive.booklikes.com

I requested The Nightingale Girls because it immediately reminded me of Call The Midwife. Set in London's East End during the 30s it follows three young girls in The Nightingale, a training hospital for nurses.

It wasn't for me, unfortunately. I felt too little history and way to much soap opera. Besides, while it was a very easy read and not unpleasant as such, the multiple characters included felt like clichés to me and the stories were rather predictable.

I have to admit I don't think this genre really fits me, so I will leave the other books in the series as they are.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! ( )

Story of three nurses from different backgrounds starting nurses training at the Nightingale hospital,in the 1930s. Very enjoyable read, but not taxing or demanding to read. Definitely reminds me of Call the Midwife Tv series on PBS. I hope the later book in this series are as enjoyable, including those with Christmas titles. ( )

Very enjoyable read about three women who begin their nurses training in London. The interaction is great reading and their lives full of suspence and intrigue. I like reading about the medical field and this does not disappoint. I was captivated by the first sentence until the end and fortunately there are two more books following these characters in the series.
I received a copy of this book by the publishing company for an honest review which I have given. ( )

I received this book in exchange for an honest review via NetGalley. That in no way changes my opinion of this story.

I was interested in reading this book because the description sounded interesting, and was more excited to learn that there was 3 books in this series (and I get the honor to review all three!). However I just now discovered there are 2 additional books in this series and I will definitely have to read those at some point. I can’t be kept hanging, not knowing what happens!

The Nightingale is a very prestigious Nursing School in London, and only the best are accepted to learn there. Here we meet three young women- Dora, Helen and Millie, all from very different backgrounds with different reasons for wanting to become a nurse. As you learn about their lives back home, and the struggles each has overcome, you will fall in love with each of them equally.

Without giving away any spoilers- you will learn about each girl equally, where they are from, what they are struggling with, and what their future goals and ambitions are. And if they are lucky enough between studying and ward training, they just might find peace and love.
