First, I want to state that my review does not negate the relevance and importance of a book such as All You Have To Do Is Call. I am immensely grateful that Kerri Maher told the story of the Jane Network, as I had no idea of its existence. What an inspiration these six are! My biggest complaint is that the book moved too slowly for me. I stopped. I started. I stopped. I restarted... I wanted to feel more urgency as I read, as the overturning of Roe v. Wade has reignited passionate feelings across the country. I wanted the book to land a powerful punch! And even though it didn't for me, it is important enough of an issue that I will recommend it to others.
Here is what was done very well, in my opinion. Maher presented several different female personalities-woman with varying degrees of education, from different socio-economic situations, married, single, conservative, liberal, and of all races. The issue of abortion affects all women whether we realize it or not. I liked how everyone came together despite their differences to support, strengthen, and learn from one another.
