Olive is many things. Independent. Driven. Loyal. And a little bit adrift.

She’s okay with still figuring it all out, navigating her world without a compass. But life comes with expectations and big choices to be made. So when her best friends’ lives branch away towards marriage and motherhood, leaving the path they’ve always followed together, she starts to question her choices—because life according to Olive looks a little bit different.

Moving, memorable, and a mirror for anyone at a crossroads, OLIVE has a little bit of all of us. Told with humor and great warmth, this is a modern tale about the obstacle course of adulthood and the challenges of having—and deciding not to have—children.

Olive’s life is like a mirror of my own. I felt so deeply for her experience in deciding not to have children. Such a great narrative about the way society views women who are mothers, trying to become mothers, pregnant, and desperate not to be a mother.

This book really surprised me because it’s really smart and funny and deeply relatable. All of the women in the circle of friends are so vibrant. I hope there are more to come because this was a book I couldn’t put down until I got to the end.

Smart, Relatable, & Engaging
