My best book of 2011, The Push by Ashley Audrain

 I think I've just finished my best read of 2021. It's so well written and so heartbreaking. It makes me wonder about what family really means, about marriage and most of all motherhood.

It is so well written in such a real and honest way that it totally freaks me out.
This story is so dark, mysterious, unsettling, depressing and nonetheless beautiful. I read it in two days, I just couldn't put it down.
This book highlights every single one of my fears about being /becoming a parent, a mother.
This mother-daughter relationship developed in three generations of women who suffered from mental illness women who tortured their daughter and in the end they committed suicide.
Still Blythe, our main character did her best to connect with her daughter Violet, but there seems to be something wrong with this daughter. Nobody believes her. Even her husband thinks she isn't capable to be a good mother.
Did Blythe suffer from mental illness like her mother and grandmother or is her daughter an evil person? Can children be evil?
This book left me with so many questions and I would love to talk about it with someone
Did you read it, and if so what do you think of it?
