- Reading
- Let the reader choose whether to discuss the characters’ feelings or continue reading first.
- Themes
- Four points of view: The novel alternates among Ellie, Josh, Caleb and Corinne as they respond to the pregnancy and its effects on their lives. The shifting perspectives give the characters’ differing reactions space in the narrative; the structure presents the situation through more than one person’s experience.
- Worth knowing
- Sexual activity and pregnancy are central to the plot.
