I normally love this kind of book, with facts and policies combined with personal stories. The stories and policies illustrated important realtors of the effects of the changes in abortion laws on women’s health and healthcare in general across the country. Unfortunately it became very bogged down and repetitive by the length and similarly of these situations. It was difficult to keep reading, which I realize is illustrative of the many, many situations the author reports, so I think a little tightening and variation of the stories would have strengthened the narrative. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced digital of this book, which did not affect my review. I also partly listened to it on audio through my library when it was released.

I really appreciated the idea and effort behind this book. I’m glad there is writing about post Roe abortion care. UNDUE BURDEN is too long, though. It is extremely redundant. It is detailed in ways that do not add to the story/information being shared. The book is one note.
