Wow! I am so interested in this subject and this book did its job in giving information. It was very informative, important, and helpful in understanding the different aspects to mothers who kill their children.
However, the writing I didn't like. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to give empathy or be a research paper. There were times it was written for a high schooler and other times there were so many big words in one sentence I didn't understand the point.
Overall if you are interested in this tough subject read this book. It's a quick read but have your dictionary ready to go bc context clues did not work!

Awesome book but that could just be the social worker in me. Helped shed light on a lot of stigma and stereotypes of women who kill their children.

This book is such an important read. It’s such a well-done study and look into what causes a mother to murder their child. This book is heartbreaking, infuriating, and a must-read.
