When Blythe births her first child, Violet, she is unable to connect with her in any way-physically and emotionally. Yet she seems to be the only one who sees this side of Violet. There are the incidents that happen that make you wonder about Violet and a propensity to violence. Even though their mother/daughter relationship is horrible, Blythe wants to have another child. Maybe the second time will be different.
When Sam is born, the parenting relationship is a polar opposite from the relationship with Violet. While Sam adores Violet, the feeling may not be mutual.
The second half of The Push is a roller coaster of events. And ones that can't be described without ruining the ending.
This book is one of those where I can't see I liked it. It led to me wanting to have some philosophical discussions about what happened. It won't be a book I will soon forget.
