The Push by Ashley Audrain

4.0

All of my worst anxieties and fears about motherhood were portrayed in this book. It is such intimate writing that the author can get you right into the mind of Blythe, the main character. The emotional turmoil she faces with her firstborn and the generational trauma are anxiety-inducing and heartbreaking. I started listening to this book with my husband, and it was pretty eye-opening for him to read from a woman's perspective and the emotional turmoil that comes with childbirth. I could absolutely see this turning into a movie, and it makes me want to read more of her work.
