Interesting but so so so so many characters and names which made the reading experience less fun and more confusing for me (kinda felt like a grocery list of Greek gods)

Have been recommending this one to basically everyone I talk to (including but not limited to some strangers at a concert). Written in a very accessible way and made me learn a lot.

I’ve read this a few weeks ago and I’m still thinking about it. Really impacted the way I think about reproductive health and birth control.

Beautifully written book. I usually read romances for the relaxing vibes, but this one actually really touched me and occasionally  moved me to tears. The writing was stunning, to the point where I reread some sentences just because they were so beautifully crafted. 4 stars because the main character’s messy decisions made me feel uncomfortable at times, but she is a major vibe nonetheless.
