This book gave me a better understanding and perspective into the lives of mothers. I think this book changed me!
This was the first book I read by Leila Mottley, and I loved the way each chapter was written, giving the perspective of each character and how their lives intertwined.
This is such an important and profound read. The prose is beautiful and the story is dynamic, and complex. I highly recommend this one!
