La verdad que este libro es genial, no es muy complicado ni lento de leer. Me divertió mucho y siento que a pesar de que es algo cómico y que nunca nos va a pasar un viaje para ir a abortar como el de Veronica y Bailey, no lo quita lo serio a la situación. 
Claramente lo recomiendo a todos lo que quieran una lectura corta e intensa pero averigüen los trigger warnings.

A cute, fun read that one could easily get through in one sitting. I enjoyed making the audiobook last through a few work days. At times some of the dialogue or certain scenes seemed a little ridiculous and tropey but I see that as evidence of a book that doesn't take itself too seriously so I appreciated the laughs. Finally, female friendship is one of the ultimate themes in my wheelhouse, so this story really did it for me in that regard.
