A review by rosadrinkbooks
Olive by Emma Gannon

5.0

Easily one of the best books I have read all year. I feel deeply from reading this, how despite being in the 21st century there is a taboo in women not wanting to have children or to confessing to the struggles of being a Mother.

Olive is relatable yet not a Bridget Jones knock off, who is simultaneously selfish as well as selfless.
This is illustrated in recurring moments throughout the book where she guilty of seeking the flaws in people, she found too perfect.
