reminded me of the handmaid's tale. in this day and age the objectification of reproduction is something that i felt was touched on, along with an analyzation of race and class division. the ending was deepy unhappy tho.
even though jane ended up having a good job and taking care of amalia, she was still tethered to mae and poor despite being told she would get life-changing money for carrying the baby. it really pissed me off that she got robbed of that just because she wanted to see her daughter.
