challenging dark emotional mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I read Audrey Audrain's debut, The Push, in 2 days because I literally couldn't stop. What does it mean to be a good mother? What if you don't connect emotionally with your child? How much emotional trauma is passed down from mothers to daughters? The Push examines 4 generations of females as well as the ways having children impact one marriage. I loved this book.
