Many thanks to NetGalley, St Martin's Press Minotaur Books and Macmillan Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of this novel by Julia Spiro, with the audiobook perfectly narrated by Abigail Reno. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars!
Brynn should be on top of the world - she has a new baby, a devoted husband, a career she enjoys, and life on Martha's Vineyard. But she's struggling. Her husband seems distant and new motherhood is hard. When a family friend is found dead and her husband accused of the crime, Brynn's life is really turned upside down.
I loved this story of a new mom, struggling with all that entails. Nothing in her life is as it was before – not her relationship with her husband, not her body, not her work. She doesn’t trust herself enough to know who she can trust, even her husband.. You could feel Brynn's struggles and doubts about herself and those around her. I liked the look into all that goes into the label of being a good mom, mostly how we as women judge ourselves and our own moms.
