I was excited to read this book because I have a teenage daughter and so do many of my friends. I think this is something Mom's don't think could ever happen in this way to their daughters. I was saddened by the people's reaction and how they are all ready to blame the Mother for everything. This is a great discussion book from many viewpoints.
Lots going on in this book as far as relationships, which is really nice, but it results in some stories being under-developed. All in all thought a very well written book that explores what happens in relationships when things don't go as expected. It is a very sunshine wins out type of story, which is nice if you are just reading it for fun; however I wouldn't want a teenager to read this book and think that teenage pregnancy is easy or get the "everything always works out at the end of the book" kind of mentality. But for a group of grown women, we had some very interesting discussions about this book, and therefore I would definitely recommend this book to other book clubs.
