Contained more fatphobia and anti-fat bias than I expected. Could use more gender neutral language around pregnancy

While I had my moments of doubt with this book, mostly due to my concerns of it having the potential to be exploitative towards highly emotional topic, I think it was an overall really worthwhile read. There were some chapters I really didn’t love (the crime scene cleaner particularly), but there were more that I appreciated then those I didn’t. It’s an interesting exploration of the way some cope with the inevitability of death
