I'm a nursing student in Colorado and I was wondering if anyone has any book reccomendations, both fiction and non-fiction for me to read on my little time off :). I'd appreciate any input! Thanks!!!

Some of my lighter favorites:

Baby Catcher: Chronicles of a Modern Midwife -- Peggy Vincent

This is a Soul: The Mission of Rick Hodes -- Marilyn Berger

Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World -- Tracy Kidder

Monique and the Mango Rains: Two Years with a Midwife in Mali -- Kris Holloway

Oh, unless you wanted to forget about medicine during your break, ha.

This summer, I caught up on a few Paul Farmer books, a book called Killer Germs, The Red Queen, and some others I can't think of at the moment, but they were so good!!!

Oh, I also read a couple books about the flu pandemic in 1918. Crazy interesting.
