During her junior year, sixteen-year-old Maggie Reynolds expected to shop for prom dresses not maternity clothes. Now, instead of studying for the SATs, she’s reading, What to Expect When You’re Expecting. Maggie’s ‘Mother Dearest’ lives in fear that Maggie will somehow taint the family name, so Maggie can’t turn to her for help. Meanwhile, her father is oblivious to anything but his 9-9 job. And her boyfriend, Justin? She’s pretty sure he’ll stay by her side.
While Maggie wrestles with her options, Justin offers a solution: abortion. It would solve all her problems quickly, easily, and effectively. And her parents would never know, which means they won’t throw her out and cut her off like they’d always threatened if she got herself knocked up. Now Maggie must decide which choice she can live with: abortion or teenage motherhood. Either way, it’ll be a tough road to travel.

Love this book cover. 'At What Cost' would probably make me cry, and a story that will hit home with those who have travelled down this road.
ReplyDeleteI love this cover too!!!
DeleteFor some reason, it won't let me reply to SSBookFanatics. Yes, I've been told it's made people cry and every time I read a certain part, I found myself crying too! It's pretty pathetic for the author to cry, don't you think? Or maybe it's a good thing, I don't know. :)
ReplyDeleteJessie, I think it's a good thing, because if what the author wrote (in this case, you) affects them, then it will most definitely affect the reader. Are you including tissues? :)
DeleteThanks for your reply.
Sandra
I should include tissues. I'll try to remember that for next time. :O)
