This was my book clubs January pick something out of our comfort zone!!
First, all the trigger warnings! That beginning of the book destroyed me and almost made me DNF! We’re talking traumatic birth, stillbirth and loss of a child!! None of us knew this going in and I don’t want other readers to be blindsided! Once you get past the incredibly difficult first chapters it’s an interesting concept! A green gas gets dropped and it kills all men but seems to enhance women and gives them special abilities!
