\n<\/a><\/div>\n

This is another book in the Cherry Ames series. In this case she’s gotten a job at a girl’s boarding school which is basically down on its luck. There aren’t many students, and most of Cherry’s nursing problems are fairly minor. There is a mystery involving one of the girls, though, where she wants to find a formula for a perfume made by an ancestor of hers.<\/p>\n

I’m still not reading as much as I would like but I couldn’t resist this when I spotted it sitting on my night stand. I read this series when I was a kid and fell in love with them. In fact, they’re my bucket list book series. I only own three of them so far, but I’m always looking in thrift stores and at garage sales for more. That said, this is the one that always stuck with me…<\/p>\n

The Good – <\/b>
\nThis is a light, quick read akin to Nancy Drew. Cherry is a regular girl who struggles with a bit of insecurity, but who is always there for her patients and who has a quick mind.<\/p>\n

The Bad –<\/b>
\nThese were written during a time period when nurses were often seen to be below doctors and not as important. Certain things like this are apparent within the book.<\/p>\n

The Summary – <\/b>
\nThis is one of my favorite books of all time. I suspect that now that I own it, I will read it over and over again. If you’re able to keep in mind the time period that it was written versus getting offended, this is a great series no matter the age of the reader.<\/p>\n
