Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 July 2022

Get the tissues ready, you will need them. This book will make you feel every emotion.

This is the fifth book in the Cornish Midwife series, but I jumped right in having not read any of the previous ones. This can absolutely be read as a standalone as it seems each book focuses on a different character, but I will definitely be going back and reading the rest of the books so I can find out the rest of the stories.

My heart went out for Izzy - she was an instant favourite for me, I loved reading her story. She's going through so much and she really rises to it. She's so passionate and caring and generous, you can't help but love her and root for her.

I freaking loved Noah. I didn't think I would at first because I'm always a bit wary of religion, but I loved his drive and how he was always chasing a challenge. I loved seeing him work through his own crisis of faith, and open up his faith to others and support them however he could.

I loved Frankie's positivity, how even though she was so understandably sad she was still a light to those around her. I want more of her story because the bits told in A Leap of Faith for the Cornish Midwife made me really care for her and her happiness.

The narrative switches between Frankie, Noah and Izzy, and I loved their vibrant personalities and how it shone through their perspectives. I always knew who I was reading, the characters were well developed and stood apart from each other.

This book is absolutely perfect for fans of Call the Midwife, for those days where you want your heart to be both torn to shreds and full of love. It's a ride, and best enjoyed with a hot cup of tea and a whole box of tissues. I can't wait to go back and read the rest and end up a sobbing mess again, because it was so cathartic and the hope and happiness in the story more than made up for the sad times.

I love the Cornish Midwife series so I couldn't wait to read and listen to this. It was like being back with old friends. This is Izzy's story and an emotional one it is, it is also full of hope and love. Lota of feels with this book!
This is a great addition to the series and one I could read about for a long time to come as I love all of the Midwife's, I really hope we have another to add to the collection soon, there are a couple of characters I would love to read more about.
I definitely recommend this and the whole series so far!

It's great to catch up with the midwives of Port Agnes, if you're a regular reader of Jo Bartlett's Cornish Midwife series. If you haven't read any of them you have a great series to start.
Izzy has a tough time ahead with her grandmother's cancer spreading and her mother acting like neither of them matter. But meeting new vicar Noah is like a breath of fresh air for Gran and a lesson in trust for Izzy.

Jo has the ability to make you laugh and cry in equal measures. This book is a real page turner. I have just spent one night reading it as I couldn’t put it down. I am a big fan of Jo’ and I cannot wait for her next book to come out. Jo says she is not a real mid wife but you would not know by the way she writes. She is a very talented author.

I have loved every book in the series the storylines for each character has been perfect reading getting to know each individual member of the story has been great.
Love is storylines regarding midwives and how they work in the small community.
If I could write it more than 5 stars I would do. Can't wait to see what Jo brings out next x

Having read all of Jo's previous books this book did not disappoint. It had love, laughs, tears and all the wonderful things that make this series of books a fantastic read.

I have read all the Midwife books up to press, and I have to say this last one was the best.. I cried and laughed, it was beautifully written and I did wonder whether Jo had been a Midwife., but obviously not.
Thank you Jo for a really lovely series.. ❤️

I think the latest installment of the Cornish midwives has to be one of my favorites. Izzys character is amazing, and this story was a bit of a tear jerker.
Jo your such an talented writer, I love this series and I can't wait for the next one 😍
