I expected a book that discussed the decision of wether or not to have children.
I didn't expect the way it did this -it gives different perspectives but it doesn't try to be objective- and that it discusses motherhood beyond that decision.

Content Warnings
Moderate: Body shaming, Misogyny, Sexual content, and Toxic relationship
Minor: Homophobia
The narrator is pretty homophobic and has a fundamental misunderstanding of what gay and lesbian relationships are like. She is also pretty consumed by internalized misogyny and her toxic relationship
