Why read it?
1 author picked Unravelling Us as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Renee’s father was in jail for murder, and her mother never got over the shame. This book is about family secrets and how corrosive they can be, and also how a child survives a manipulative mother. I was floored by the wild level of pain a parent could inadvertently bestow on their child, but there is also much grace and love in this memoir.
This book will be available May 2022.
From Alice's list on complicated mother and daughter relationships.
