Ottimo libro per giovani ragazzi/e nei loro primi anni di adulto per una riflessione sulla condizione di donna e sul ruolo che la società impone su di ella.



Il finale mi ha rimasta un po’ spiazzata o forse sono solo io a non essere stata capace di capire la protagonista.

What if you have a child, and that child wishes with every bone in her body that she'd never been born? 

That's the only sentence that left an impression on me.. 

It was pretty boring for me. I guess I don't really like this genre, but I also in my reading slump. It took weeks to finish this book. Breast implant and egg insemination weren't something that I'm interested in, so it was really hard to finish. I always feel guilty to drop a book, so I managed to finish this book eventhough I fell asleep several times. I really don't know what I didn't like in this book, it just not sit well with me.
