A review by jessdekkerreads
Mother in the Dark by Kayla Maiuri

5.0

A tender, vulnerable and heartbreaking debut novel about sisterhood, motherhood, family and healing. This story explores mental illness and generational trauma. This story healed parts of me I hadn’t thought about in so long. It urged me to finally pick up that phone call from my dad. What a special thing when a book can heal parts of you, the power of Kayla’s words, not only in her novel, but also in her kind messages that followed. 

I cannot wait to see what Kayla does next.
