| Summary: | Sixteen-year-old Ivy's road trip across the country to get an abortion becomes a transformative journey of vulnerability, strength, and above all, choice. Ivy can't entirely believe it when the plus sign appears on the test. Now, instead of spending the summer in her small Texas town working at the local drugstore and swooning over her boyfriend, Lorenzo, she's planning a cross-country road trip to her grandmother's house on the West Coast, where she can legally obtain an abortion. Ivy and Lorenzo hit the road, and while she can't can't run from the incessant pressure of others' opinions about her body or from her own expectations and insecurities, she discovers a new world of healing and hope. As the women she encounters share their stories, she chips away at the stigma, silence, and shame surrounding reproductive rights while those collective experiences guide her to her own rightful destination. -- adapted from Goodreads |
