The Waitress by Emily Shiner
2.0
Just how far will a mother go to protect her child? Well for those of us who are mothers I would say to the ends of the earth and back. Anne Marie, waitress and single mom comes face to face with that question in The Waitress.
I have to say that this novel does show how prior trauma might color your current relationship with your child. To be fair though, I found it difficult to empathize or believe with the main character or her child. Definitely not a book I would read again. Possibly a good book for someone who doesn’t have kids or who would overlook anything (and I mean anything) their kids might do in the future .
