MEMOIRS


Next month's book club selection is The Pregnancy Project by Gaby Rodriguez.  This is a memoir about a high school student who pretends to be pregnant.  She details how she was able to fake her pregnancy as well as all she learned from the experience.  This story later served as the inspiration of a Lifetime movie.
