Completely captivating. I never wanted to set this book down. I was completely hooked and felt so connected to each of the characters as well as naturally learning a lot through the story.

A beautiful story told in short chapters which skip around in both time and point of view and weave together a poignant novel. All narrators are women who are in some way connected to the Jane underground network for abortion. Themes touched on in the book include motherhood, love, family, friendship, standing up for what is right, bravery, and more. Heartfelt and thought provoking - a must read!
