A review by alomie
The Mothers by Brit Bennett

dark emotional reflective fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I thought this was a well paced book that hit some really hard topics.

In parts I felt for all the characters even if they were flawed and rubbish. 

Hard to read in parts.
