i am at a loss for words. this book provides the grotesque and raw narration of what it means to be a woman. it did trigger me at times but i enjoyed it alot.

haunting, graphic, and so important. I don’t care what people say, I think this was an incredibly brave thing for Ernaux to publish at the height of her literary career and gives voice to many with similar experiences.

Really great knowing that my country has decided that abortions are no longer okay 🙃.  just such a comforting feeling, isn’t it??? I hope pro-life people understand that outlawing abortion doesn’t make it less common, it just makes it incredibly dangerous.
