The Dead Of Winter

At the start of the story I did not care for the main character that much. Her attitude about her actions were just to calm for my liking. I just felt like she wasn't grasping how serious an abortion is. Though her little boyfriend was no better. But the story developed I started to enjoy the piece. This memoir's illustrations effectively filled in the gaps the writing left behind. I actually felt sad for the teenage girl. The part that hit me the most was seeing the image of a winged baby floating. The piece put a new twist on a topic that has been done so many times before that it often gives the reader the same view point.
