5.0

An intense family drama and personal and up close look at abortion, relationships, religion, and how choices have lasting effects on the characters. I found it to be incredibly nuanced and despite some of the characters not being likable, I think they were complex, and challenging making for a VERY compelling read. Would recommend if you like family drama.
