Description

The Mothers by Brit Bennett is a powerful debut novel about love, secrets, and the weight of choices. Set in a contemporary Black community in Southern California, this emotional story follows Nadia Turner, a seventeen-year-old coping with her mother’s suicide. When a secret romance with Luke Sheppard—the pastor’s son and former football star—leads to an unplanned pregnancy, Nadia makes a choice that will shape her future.

As years pass, Nadia, Luke, and her best friend Aubrey find themselves entangled in a web of love, regret, and “what ifs.” Written in lyrical prose, The Mothers explores grief, ambition, and the lasting consequences of the decisions we make when we are young.

A stunning exploration of community, motherhood, and coming of age, The Mothers is both heart-wrenching and unforgettable.
