Mini Review: Motherest by Kristen Iskandrian
4****
Though it is a little slow moving, Motherest is also an impressive debut, that quietly considers motherhood, what it means to be a parent, and also what it means to be a child becoming an adult. This is a thoughtful and thought-provoking book, even if the plot is actually very simple. I felt it really highlighted that, in many ways, the small things in life, really are the big things. It reminded me a little of Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt, which was exceptional. I look forward to seeing what Kristen Iskandrian comes up with next!
