📦Donating Soon A Good Morning America Book Club Pick | A New York Times bestseller! “Utterly addictive.” —Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train “Hooks you from the very first page and will have you racing to get to the end.”—Good Morning America A tense, page-turning psychological drama about the making and breaking of a family—and a woman whose experience of motherhood is nothing at all what she hoped for—and everything she feared Ashley Audrain's second novel, The Whispers, is on sale now Blythe Connor is determined that she will be the warm, comforting mother to her new baby Violet that she herself never had. But in the thick of motherhood's exhausting early days, Blythe becomes convinced that something is wrong with her daughter—she doesn't behave like most children do. Or is it all in Blythe's head? Her husband, Fox, says she's imagining things. The more Fox dismisses her fears, the more Blythe begins to question her own sanity, and the more we begin to question what Blythe is telling us about her life as well. Then their son Sam is born—and with him, Blythe has the blissful connection she'd always imagined with her child. Even Violet seems to love her little brother. But when life as they know it is changed in an instant, the devastating fall-out forces Blythe to face the truth. For fans of Verity and We Need to talk about Kevin, The The Push is a tour de force you will read in a sitting, an utterly immersive novel that will challenge everything you think you know about motherhood, about what we owe our children, and what it feels like when women are not believed.

Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have expressed a range of emotions about this psychological drama, describing it as dark, intense, and emotionally charged. The book delves into the complexities of motherhood, focusing on themes like maternal self-doubt, generational trauma, and the sometimes unsettling dynamics between mothers and daughters. While some found the narrative gripping and unputdownable, noting its ability to evoke strong, uncomfortable feelings, others pointed out its heavy, depressing atmosphere. Despite its polarizing nature, many readers highly recommend it for its raw and honest portrayal of a troubled young mother, though they also caution potential readers to check the trigger warnings due to the heavy content.
