A solid 3 stars! Realistically this book wasn't written for me and had it not been a book club pick I'd have probably never picked it up because I know it's not my kind of book.

I'm glad I read it, I enjoyed it more than I expected to, as a person who doesn't want children I just didn't really have that connection to the experience, it'd be an easy choice for me and realistically I'd never be in that situation anyway 😂!

I found it a little unpolished, it really had my attention at the start and I was super gripped but it lost me towards the end, I found the situation with her dad was really moved on from quickly and I didn't buy it, I feel that area needed more attention and I found it a bit repetitive in areas but overall good solid read. I suspect the author may have written about her own experiences maybe.
