There is something so beautiful about the mundane experiences of being a woman. Even the taboo or morally unethical experiences that women are taught to never speak about. My only criticism is I would have loved to have read more about the roots of their friendship and their experiences as a group.

I feel like a silent observer in their journey through friendship, love, and self-discovery. A story that's not just about characters but about shared moments, missed connections, and the messy, delightful chaos of life.

But I wanted more, I feel the lack and the absent perspective of women who doesn't want children. The absence of women who choose not to have kids in so many literature makes me feel alone, I guess I have to find it somewhere else.

was going to be 4 stars until the epilogue. not sure about last minute implication that if you choose to not have children your body will have some biological yearning on your behalf.
