Un livre intéressant avec un sujet extrêmement important, surtout vu l'actualité aux USA...Ce que Camille (et n'importe quelle autre personne qui souhaite une IVG) doit endurer pour avoir le contrôle de son propre corps est absolument abject. Ce livre m'a du coup pas mal énervé à cause de ça, car je sais à quel point c'est une réalité. L'amitié entre les trois personnages était adorable cependant.
