Unfortunately, I lost access to all of my audiobooks when the app updated so I never got to finish this one. I still enjoyed the first half so will probably pick it up from my local library sometime. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC.

Happy pub day to my last non fiction read MOTHERCARE: On Obligation, Love, Death and Ambivalence by Lynne Tillman! I enjoyed this book! It’s an in depth account of the author caring for her mother and dealing with the American healthcare system. I appreciated the honesty in this book as some parts were uncomfortable to read but caring for a sick parent will always have some uncomfortable moments. It was interesting to read about Tillman’s experiences with her sisters, finding the right doctor and diagnosis for her mother and hiring the right caregiver. This book made me reflect on my own family and mortality. I also listened to the audiobook and Kim Niemi did a great job narrating! Another good book to add to my beloved Soft Skull collection!
