What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty
5.0

I loved the juxtaposed Alices.

It's so easy to fall into the busyness of life with kids. We forget who we are as individuals because of the responsibilities we have as parents. Sometimes it's a loss, a death or something more personal like the injury Alice has, that reminds us that we can be our own person and be a parent. Life is challenging, especially being married and having kids. It's much harder to stay open to the possibility, like Alice post-spin accident, that not all is lost.
