Tears in a Bottle Tears in a Bottle by Sylvia Bambola


My review


rating: 2 of 5 stars
I found this book randomly by looking in the inspirational section of the library. This book was focused on Abortion and the decision a young woman's parents make for her when they find out she is pregnant her senior year of high school. Both sides of the abortion issue were addressed, but never was the option of adoption mentioned.



My heart breaks for the young, single girls who seek the help of Maggie, a post-abortion counselor. Maggie shows how healing can be found if you turn your burdens over to Jesus Christ. She constantly has prayers in her heart for the heart broken woman, knowing personally how recovering from an abortion feels.



On the other end of the spectrum, you have the greedy, dispicable Doctors who have turned an abortion clinic into a money-making clinic. They time how long the abortions take and how they can sell body parts to companies willing to pay top dollar, all in the name of research.



Being vehemently opposed to abortion, this book was troubling due to not showing other options for young girls who get pregnant. It shows how everyone suffers when a baby is aborted, the mom, relationships, and even the doctors who perform the procedures. A fast read, but leaves me feeling "ick."
