I absolutely loved the back and forth banter between characters. I loved how relatable this story was and how it can resonate with anyone experiencing infertility. I am not personally effected by infertility, to my knowledge, but it’s always on my mind especially as I get older. I feel like I would be following in Kristen’s shoes in that I would hate to ever be with someone who expects to have their own biological children and then wind up not being able to and constantly feeling like they are settling for you. This can cause quite the trauma and make you feel worse for not being able to carry children on your own. The ending had me sobbing and feeling all the feels. I wasn’t planning on crying but here we are and I loved the entire story.
