Book Review - A New Doctor at Orchard Cottage Hospital - By Lizzie Lane - Publication Date: 23 May 2024


This has been a really enjoyable book for me as a few elements pulled together to make it what it is.  The struggle of women post the suffragettes gaining the vote for them, and their moving into positions zealously guarded by men, such as doctors like Dr. Frances Brainspeare.  The general struggles post WWI and dealing with the fallout of lost loved ones and/or maimed loved ones.  A sprig of romance added flavor to the small town setting and these worked out satisfactorily to my way of thinking as women championed women, some of whom had gained male applause.  The sprinkle of humor was the clincher for me right there alongside the author's wonderful way with words.
