I was being unfair on how crumby I thought the characters were. This is turning out to be more interesting and coming-of-age-y. I just dislike the representation of a wayward teenager having a child and apparently finding her purpose, not finding it jarring or difficult. It's just implausible.

I love the writing but the story is annoying. Maybe it's because this is from 2012 and perhaps before women having secret babies as a plot device started to seem cliche. But also the whole "motherhood is martyrdom" thing wore thin for me about a decade ago. Plus several characters seem extremely naive.
