Another one of the most anticipated book of 2021. I had such mixed feelings about this book and how to star grade it.
A dark page turner tackling difficult subject matter across generations of dysfunctional mothers and mental illness. There can be so many layers of discussion/ debate of nature versus nurture; how do you struck a balance? This book has content that may be upsetting to some readers; who said motherhood is easy? It is a life time commitment, it is tough, painful both physically and psychologically.
I rated this book very highly, in fact 5 stars. I’m not sure if I “liked” it, as it was incredibly disturbing. But I couldn’t put it down, it was shocking and made me feel all the emotions, and stayed with me for a few days. I think this is the best book I’ve read so far in 2021.
