The Mothers by Brit Bennett

5.0

I thought this was wonderful. I loved Brit Bennett's writing and will be excited to see what she does next. I thought the story was beautiful; an insightful view into the complex nature of race, sexuality, religion and ability and the nuanced way certain life choices impact whole lives. The characters were well developed and I particularly liked the gentle way in which the characters - who are flawed, complicated and often despairingly human - were presented.
