Richardson is an awful mother to her, I do believe that she would spend the rest of her life searching for her. I also didn't like not knowing what happens to Izzy. Richardson had no trouble at all believing it. It would have been more believable if Lexie just privately wrote Pearl's name showing her true nature, at lease how she was raised, to believe that she's somehow superior and isn't the kind of girl who would have an abortion, but would consider Pearl to be the kind of girl who would have one. I'm surprised the book was written that way. I know many teenage girls and not one would ever let her friend put her name down on that kind of a form. Richardson never received clarity on who had the abortion, of course I saw that coming a mile away when Lexie gave Pearl's name at the clinic. I usually prefer long novels 500+ pages so there's time to truly develop characters and explain endings. (view spoiler) [I had mixed feelings about the ending too.
