This was fine.
I found a lot of the monologuing about motherhood to be interesting.
But that’s about it.
I didn’t love the idea that her freedom relies on sex work, it feels like another tired trope of sex work “saving” a woman from feeling mundane. Sex work is work, but the way it was used as a device in this book was bizarre.
Also, there was no actual drama or issue in the end.
