Impressive Debut
I paired the book with the audiobook read by Sarah Borges who does a nice reading of this novel.

Looking for Jane is a historical fiction novel, following three main characters living in Toronto from the 1960s to 2010s. All three are deeply impacted by the struggle for reproductive rights in Canada. Their lives become intertwined with a secret network of volunteers and health care providers known as, Janes, who risk arrest and other dangers to provide illegal abortion services. Exploring reproductive rights, choices, motherhood, and justice under unjust systems.
