  • Our Favorite Reads of 2025 So Far

    By Renee Bracey Sherman, Regina Mahone Verified, Nussaibah Younis, Nadia Terranova| ad astra Newsletter Verified What makes for an excellent book? Obviously the definition is subjective, based on personal tastes, cravings, interests, and more. What we consider a good book right now might not hold the same a year later.

  • What to Expect When You’re Expecting an Abortion

    By Renee Bracey Sherman, Regina Mahone Verified| YES! Magazine Verified The morning of Renee Bracey Sherman’s abortion, the thing she fretted about the most was what to wear to her procedure. Should I wear comfy clothes that are easy to remove? But what if I look messy—will they think I am not taking this seriously? If I get too dressed up, am I going to be out of place? Do I have to take off all my clothes, the way I would for surgery, or just the bottoms, like at a gyno exam?
