Realistic depiction of a young woman in crisis

I loved this book. The story realistically portrays a woman examining all of her options, as she comes to terms with her pregnancy that resulted from a brutal rape. The current cultural climate is also depicted, as well as the historical context, eugenics, racial disparities, all masterfully woven into this narrative. No spoilers here, but you will definitely be shocked by the ending of this riveting story.
