The Mothers by Brit Bennett

5.0

This was a real page turner for me! Bennett is so successful at building and weaving the story, as well as pacing it. The theme of motherhood, in varying forms, is deftly explored... as well as different forms of trauma and its reverberations throughout the course of a life. I found sympathy for all of the characters and was left wanting to know more of them after the final page.
