5.0

This book was a rollercoaster of emotions. I went back and worth between anger at the unfairness and judgment passed on mothers to sadness for the circumstances women have to endure to meet societal standards. Thought provoking and triggering at the same time. This is a book that will stick with me. Highly recommend to everyone looking to jump into dystopian storylines and morally gray characters.
