A unique take on teen pregnancy and how decisions made affected the rest of her life. I am so impressed with how this was written and how well it touches on different topics that come with that
possible abortion, maternity houses, adoption, etc
. I also loved the formatting, with each chapter being a short snapshot of different time periods in her life.
