Wooooow. I mean wooow. Lo recomiendo mucho.
Me encantaron las diferentes perspectivas de las historias que se cuentan. La maternidad siempre ha tenido esta definición compleja. El apego a la feminidad. Se trata de tres diferentes mujeres que muestran ejemplos de cómo la maternidad afecta a las mujeres. Cómo aceptar el deseo de tener hijos pero también decidir no tenerlos.

Thank you for this arc.
I was interested in the premise of the book but I could not get into the writing style. Although some of it was beautiful, other parts felt forced.

3.5/5⭐️
I absolutely loved the concept of this book. I’m a sucker for short stories. The writing of course is stunning and every story has its own twist to it.
I will say it was hard to get into some of the stories and felt a bit confused but my favorite one is The Wish Bridge.

Thank you so much for this arc:)
I mean wooooow….. This was my first Coco Mellors book and I’m astonished. The writing is beautiful and gut wrenching. I love books with complex characters—story lines.
Grief is always changing and each person handles it differently. It also a complicity of family relationships and unconditional love.

This is so creepy and morbid.
Interesting take on poetry. The writing leaves you questioning what you’ve read and felt very disturbed
