This book immediately had me hooked and wondering what would unravel as the two women and their families collided. And there was a surprise at every turn. It explores the dark side of motherhood, as well as other topics: beauty, weight loss, eating disorders, and the impact of parents on children. Absolutely riveting. Would recommend.
