ka_ke's review against another edition
I don’t mind slow pacing, but I can’t stand reading about pregnancy for chapters on end. I would recommend avoiding this book if you have no desire to experience pregnancy, childbirth or parenthood.
What could have been a story of adventure, romance and diversity turned into a book about women becoming mothers simply because that was expected of them.
