  • “The atmospheric setting and half-hearted mysteries peppered throughout this book might trick you into thinking you're reading a thriller or mystery novel with a side of insta-lust, but it's actually just Motherhood is Martyrdom propaganda. The message is clear: the greatest purpose a woman can have is to sacrifice everything, including her life, for a child. It doesn't even have to be hers, any child will do.

  • “Thanks to the publisher and Libro.fm for the alc! It was fairly brilliant. If you've enjoyed any of McConaghy's previous work, this one will hit all those same spots.

It broke my heart a little and I adored it. I found all of the narrators to be highly engaging, so would definitely recommend the audio.”
