7.26.2023 - The Possibilities

The Possibilities by Yael Goldstein-Love 

Many thanks to NetGalley and Random House for gifting me a digital ARC of this intriguing look into motherhood by Yael Goldstein-Love - 4.5 stars!

Hannah has been struggling ever since her son Jack was born.  It was a traumatic birth and she keeps getting a glimpse that he didn't survive.  She begins seeing different paths her life could have taken and her marriage begins to suffer.  Then Hannah's worst nightmare happens and Jack disappears from his crib.  She must enter different realities to try and save Jack.

This is such a unique book - it ventures into different realities to explore all the conflicting thoughts of new motherhood.  Haven't all parents in those early months wondered just exactly what they did to their lives?  We follow along as Hannah is thrust into all the different feelings of the different realities with and without Jack.  It also explores how others look at new mothers with judgment and have her questioning her abilities.  All of this with wonderful writing and that sci-fi/fantasy twist.
