Blythe did not have a great mother. When she has Violet, she is determined to be the mother she never had. But Violet is difficult. She doesn’t act like other children, pitting her father against her mother, lying when she does something wrong, and showing no remorse for her actions. Blythe begins to speculate there may be something seriously wrong.
When Blythe has a second child, Sam, she finally feels like the mother she always thought she could be. There is an instant connection. Things are good for a while until tragedy strikes, ripping apart her family. As she wades through her grief, she can’t shake the feeling she knows who is responsible for all her troubles, but will anyone believe her?
This one is fast-paced and unsettling. I was skeptical going into this one as I’d just had a child and didn’t want to read about a dysfunctional mother-child relationship. However, I’m so glad I gave it a shot. The plot moves along quickly, drawing you in and keeping you glued to the story.
This book does contain descriptions of child abuse, which can be triggering for some. It also discusses depression and anxiety disorders. I had no idea what the ending would hold, but I can guarantee, the last sentence will leave you reeling long after you finish the book.
