About this listen
Anna McPartlin's new novel is a powerful and emotional exploration of motherhood, filled with unique and unforgettable characters, as funny as it is moving and as poignant as it is wise.
2010
Caroline has hit rock bottom. After years of trying, it's clear she can't have children, and the pain has driven her and her husband apart. She isn't pregnant, her husband is gone and her beloved dog is dead.
The other women at her infertility support group have their own problems, too. Natalie's girlfriend is much less excited about having children than she is. Janet's husband might be having an affair. And then there's Ronnie, intriguing, mysterious Ronnie, who won't tell anyone her story.
1976
Catherine is 16 and pregnant. Her boyfriend wants nothing to do with her, and her parents are ashamed. When she's sent away to a convent for pregnant girls, she is desperate not to be separated from her child. But she knows she might risk losing the baby forever.

Brilliant
I loved listening to this book. The themes were intense, raw, relatable, and funny. The narration was perfect, especially Catherine's. Heartbreaking and charming, I bawled my eyes out at one point, and immediately messaged my friends to recommend this book. In no way is it misery porn, quite the opposite in fact despite the heartbreak. 5/5
