This one was fun! While there are serious topics throughout the book the author is able to flawlessly mix humor which makes it a delightful read. I laughed out loud multiple times. 

Synopsis: 20 year old Margo becomes pregnant as the result of an affair with her college professor and the choices she makes in order to support and raise her son. 

I was rooting for Margo throughout the book. She is smart, strong, funny, determined and brave. If she had a problem she found a way to tackle it herself. The author displayed the hardships of being a single mom but also the rewards of being a mom. 

Quick read. Witty. Insightful. Entertaining. 

4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you @netgalley and @williammorrow for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
