The German Midwife Mandy Robotham Books Reviews

• This is actually one of the best books that I’ve ever read. Heartbreaking and shocking at times and in turn touching and heartfelt. I couldn’t put it down. I hated to read the last page. To find a new book to read now may prove difficult. I cant say enough that you should read this book. It will stay with you for a long time. Amazing.
• Mixing fact and fiction into one of the best historical novels,I have ever read,Mandy creates a believable scenario where Hitler's mistress gives birth to his child. The German Midwife was a prisoner of war,residing in a concentration camp when she was handpicked to help with the pregnancy and delivery of Eva Braun's baby. Mandy does a wonderful job making Eva a "likeable" character when the world only knows her as another evil sidekick of Hitler.. we see her as a soon to be mom doing her best for the child. The outcome at birth, was not what I expected, and grabbed me by surprise. All in all, characters and plot are totally believable and I am sad this book has come to conclusion. Hope to read more by this writer...
• This book captures love, trust, suffering and pain. It tells of childbirth in awful conditions, both by the poor and the rich, with such accuracy that you can actually feel the contractions and the indescribable love a mother feels for a newborn. With fear and loathing toward the unjustly actions taken against the innocents and collateral damage humans that come during times of war, I strongly encourage you to open your mind and heart and read this book.
• In a room somewhere in Germany a child is born with the midwife helping. It might be in a hospital, a ghetto, a concentration camp or a castle. The only concern of the midwife is the health of the mother and the child. Thus life happens or not depending on the circumstances, in wartime or not. Very interesting book.
• I completed this book in about a week’s time which is slightly longer than my norm. It took but a few chapters to really grasp my attention but midway through drug on a bit. Nearing the end, it picked up again and the end (epilogue) really tied it altogether.
• This book is both beautiful and horrifying at the same time. I picked it to read because my amazing little sister is a midwife. I will recommend it to her because the beauty overwhelms the horror. I loved it, and found it very difficult to put down. I will admit I shed some tears now and again.
• An actual good story. No formula-matic, same ole same ole this book. Fresh, totally new concept within an enjoyable read.
  Dear Author Well done you!
• A very interesting read, of what might have been. Could not put this book down! Looking forward to reading more from this author!
