Two women, bound together by opposite personalities, friendship, love and family—until motherhood rips them apart.
Depressing in places nevertheless a great audiobook!
This beautifully written book almost reads like a feminist version of Forrest Gump-- in its sweeping review of reproductive rights and the injustices against women, children and families. The book is written in the first person from protagonist, Olivia, who leads a life full of one tragic event after another and surrounds herself with rich characters while she herself remains rather emotionally flat.
Sometimes the best family is chosen. All relationships are complicated, some more than others, and this friendship is extremely complicated. This novel follows two women as they deal with the ups and downs of life. This book is well written but there's so much tragedy, it's a little depressing.
Thanks to Sea Dragon Press and NetGalley for the ALC in exchange for my honest review.
