I chose ...I have the book The Mothers in my TBR.... I chose a few months ago because of Bustle's American Woman Book Club as it was one of their book selection for February (????) I think.... <br /><br />Anyway, I have yet to read this book, but enjoy a diverse selection of books that make you think and the pro-life/pro-choice topic is a biggie! <br /><br />I liked what you wrote at the end of your post: " I have always been pro-choice politically but pro-life personally. The Mothers showed me how it is possible to carry both in one's heart and mind. There are no simple answers but we are all working on it." I have the same stance/view about the pro-life/pro-choice issue. There are no simple answers for sure to this topic.Captivated Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15789205839634527219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-18382390102109434032017-04-22T12:20:19.298-07:002017-04-22T12:20:19.298-07:00Yes, the U of M girl was quite a troubled person. ...Yes, the U of M girl was quite a troubled person. But I also sympathized with her need for independence and making her own decisions. Her needs conflicted, as did her mother's. There were quite a lot of different kinds of mothers in that book.Judy Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632346091869688862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-15063750825093168702017-04-22T06:18:46.173-07:002017-04-22T06:18:46.173-07:00There was some promise with this book, so I'll...There was some promise with this book, so I'll likely look to see what the author writes next. There's quite a betrayal in the story and that sort of bothered me.

As you say, there are no simple answers on such a fraught subject as abortion. It's something I can't imagine myself personally ever having chosen and yet it is a choice that ever woman in that situation should have the right to make for herself.Dorothy Bordershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12441731296027227394noreply@blogger.com
