During her junior year, sixteen-year-old Maggie Reynolds expected to shop for prom dresses not maternity clothes. Now, instead of studying for the SATs, she’s reading, What to Expect When You’re Expecting. Maggie’s ‘Mother Dearest’ lives in fear that Maggie will somehow taint the family name, so Maggie can’t turn to her for help. Meanwhile, her father is oblivious to anything but his 9-9 job. And her boyfriend, Justin? She’s pretty sure he’ll stay by her side.
While Maggie wrestles with her options, Justin offers a solution: abortion. It would solve all her problems quickly, easily, and effectively. And her parents would never know, which means they won’t throw her out and cut her off like they’d always threatened if she got herself knocked up. Now Maggie must decide which choice she can live with: abortion or teenage motherhood. Either way, it’ll be a tough road to travel.
Oh what to say about this book without a spoiler!! When I was first asked to do this book tour, I could not help but want to read the book. I'm glad that I did. The story line was well developed and the characters were easy to relate with. I was impressed with the editing and loved the author's writing style. I would recommend this book to anyone contemplating the topic of the book :)
J. Andersen lives in a small town in Western New York with her husband and three kids. When she says small town, she means REALLY small. A former English teacher, she now spends her time writing while the kids are at school and the baby is sleeping. When she's not writing, she volunteers at the local library, sings in the church band and takes her kids to their various activities. It's a busy life.
