Mercy Street by Jennifer Haigh
3.0

3/5 star read! While I was expecting a narrative revolving around workers and patients at a Boston abortion clinic, this story covered many more characters who touched the women's health clinic. I enjoyed reading it, but didn't feel like it gave me a strong takeaway message. I was expecting a gripping story that would stick with me, but this was pretty mundane in the end. It was still interesting and while it didn't exactly give me a new perspective on anti-abortionists, it did introduce those perspectives in a convincing way.

I was also surprised by the ending, but not entirely dissatisfied!
