Prompt 32 - a book about an overlooked woman in history - July 10, 2025 - This book is centered around Martha Ballard, a midwife from Maine in the late 1700s. Although Martha's delivery record is incredibly impressive, no one knows who she is. Her legacy lives on through her female descendants, however, with one founding the Red Cross and another becoming the first female doctor in the US.

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐️ 1/2

Who knew a quiet retiree with two dogs could be this dangerous? 🐾

Thomas Perry’s The Old Man is part slow-burn spy thriller, part unexpected action ride with a few head-scratching choices along the way.
