In this young adult novel set apart by a }Thelma & Louise{-esque sense of forward momentum, two one-time best friends head out of state so that one of them can obtain a legal abortion. Strong themes of social and reproductive justice. Veronica is top of her class - and somehow she's found herself gazing in disbelief at a positive pregnancy test. Even worse, her ex-best friend and the high school's legendary malcontent, Bailey, is the only one there to help. In this warm and darkly funny road trip story, Veronica and Bailey drive a thousand miles to an out-of-state abortion clinic - rediscovering their friendship in the process.
