What would you do if you were a 19 year old colleg student who suddenly finds herself pregnant - and with only 6 weeks to decide what to do about the creature that has invaded your body? That is the premise of this book, and consider the current political climate in this country about this very issue, a very timely book to read. The author is very careful NOT to make the case for any solution to the problem that our heroine, Imogene, faces. In fact, Immy (as she is affectionately called) is given advice by a very wise and compassionate nun: Why don't you spend one week and examine each of your options (abortion, adoption and keeping the baby) honestly and see what your body and heart tell you is the right choice for you? It is a very honest and at times, tear-producing, journey as Immy weighs her options. I found myself rooting for her as she struggled with the pros and cons of each possible scenario. I will not tell you what her final decision is - what would be the fun of that? A very good read about a situation that, unfortunately, faces a lot of women. Amazing storyline. Well thought out characters. I was hooked by the first chapter, wondering what Imogene would choose. Then...there was the end. I hate nothing more than a book with no real ending, which is exactly what happened in Six Weeks. I felt that the abrupt ending was a failure on the author's part to successfully complete the story. It seemed like she was unsure of the choice Imogene should make and ended the story because of her own indecision. If the story would have ended as intensely as it began, I would have given 5 stars, not 3.
What do You think about Six Weeks (2011)?
I would've given the book a higher rating had the ending been different.
