If I Should Die Before I Wake

This is a very informative book. It really hit home when someone close to me had an abortion. Just like in the book, she regrets it and it stays on her mind. I recommend this book for everyone, especially those teen girls who are sexually active. There is one story in the book that talks about a teen girl who goes to a party and gets raped. This is a must read book.

This book gave a very informative look at abortion and teen pregnancy from two different points of view. Rev. Falwell writes every other chapter of the book, explaining the processes and consequences of abortion from an observer's position. Alternating chapters are written from the personal experiences of a christian young lady (teen) that was raped. She tells about her friends' and family's reactions, her pregnancy, and abortion, and her own thoughts and feelings. This book opened my eyes to the realities of pregnancy and abortion, and helped me to determine that it is definately worth doing whatever is necessary in order to avoid these circumstances. Rev. Falwell makes it clear that it is better to be "safe" than not, if you are going to have sex, but the only 100% protection is to abstain from sex until marriage. A great book for teen girls and parents of teens to read. Even good for teen guys, shows them what they're really getting into, and what the girl might have to go through, when they decide to have sex.
