NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Bittersweet, sexy, morally fraught.” –The New York Times Book Review"Fantastic… a book that feels alive on the page." –The Washington PostFrom the New York-Times bestselling author of The Vanishing Half, the beloved novel about young love and a big secret in a small community. Set within a contemporary black community in Southern California, Brit Bennett's mesmerizing first novel is an emotionally perceptive story about community, love, and ambition. It begins with a secret."All good secrets have a taste before you tell them, and if we'd taken a moment to swish this one around our mouths, we might have noticed the sourness of an unripe secret, plucked too soon, stolen and passed around before its season."It is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken, seventeen-year-old beauty. Mourning her own mother's recent suicide, she takes up with the local pastor's son. Luke Sheppard is twenty-one, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to waiting tables at a diner. They are young; it's not serious. But the pregnancy that results from this teen romance—and the subsequent cover-up—will have an impact that goes far beyond their youth. As Nadia hides her secret from everyone, including Aubrey, her God-fearing best friend, the years move quickly. Soon, Nadia, Luke, and Aubrey are full-fledged adults and still living in debt to the choices they made that one seaside summer, caught in a love triangle they must carefully maneuver, and dogged by the constant, nagging question: What if they had chosen differently? The possibilities of the road not taken are a relentless haunt.In entrancing, lyrical prose, The Mothers asks whether a "what if" can be more powerful than an experience itself. If, as time passes, we must always live in servitude to the decisions of our younger selves, to the communities that have parented us, and to the decisions we make that shape our lives forever.

I wanted to like it and wanted to support the writer and buy her second book, but this book deeply disappointed--written with eighth-grade ability, it was simplistic and hard to imagine the writer grew up in Southern California, it was so full of stereotypes. The book seemed to look down on the heroine, not for having an abortion, but for wanting education and travel--maybe thinking herself too good after being "wild." Little Christian forgiveness there but a pretty uniform group of uncaring "Mothers." The church people were nasty, judgmental, and hypocritical. Every white person was not only blonde, but "dirty-blonde" or "washed-out blonde," or some other adjective for "disguising the fact I wish I was a blonde by hating them so much." There was no human interaction despite the alternate heroine being taken in by her lesbian sister and dirty-blonde partner, who spoke like an Okie circa 1950. Despite all the plot-supporting tropes including "dead mother," none of the characters came to life. Real problems were presented in a cartoonish fashion.But kudos to the author for having no one happy at the end.I disagree with other reviewers who were upset about the heroine being deeply affected by the abortion. Some women/girls are, especially young, especially in love.
