As absorbing and wonderfully written as her previous book, this explores areas of nursing I hadn’t even considered (such as in a prison) with such wonderful compassion and hope, even in the path of underfunding, cuts, and the current global pandemic.

Another fully interesting read from the courage to care. I loved Christie’s first book and jumped at the chance to read the second. Moving, well structured and thought prevoking it is well worth the read.

Watson’s first book was a heartwarming recount of her past in nursing, and this book follows in the same beautifully created way. Such a brilliant example of the true angels the nurses of the nhs are. Thank you for giving me this arc to read

Watson's first book highlighting the work of nurses was a fascinating read and this even more so. Highlighting the nurses working in less familiar settings we are reminded that clapping once a week is no reward for these dedicated, over worked & underpaid care givers.
The underlying personal thread to the narrative linking it all together was moving & it was interesting to read the new problems Covid 19 is posing to nurses.

A well written and honest account of life working in the NHS whilst being a parent and all the challenges this can bring to you
