'I will never forget her eyes in that moment - I couldn't look away from them. But I knew what happened as soon as I heard it.
'I think she pushed him,' I said to you quietly. 'I think she pushed him...'

The arrival of baby Violet was meant to be the happiest day of my life. But as soon as I held her in my arms I knew something wasn't right. I had always known that the women in my family aren't meant to be mothers.
My husband Fox says I'm imagining it. He tells me I'm nothing like my own mother, and that Violet is the sweetest child.
But she's different with me. Something feels very wrong.
Is it her? Or is it me? Is she the monster? Or am I?
The Push is an unsettling, breathtaking and powerful read about obsession and our deepest fears that will stay with you long after you turn the final page.

Brilliant
The way this story is unraveled is so far from any cliche even if at its core there are the dynamics of a family. There are no extraordinary worlds. But as it’s known, the most profound horrors live in the day to day life. I really liked the way the author is able to fill most details with feelings in a matter of fact, stark and unforgiving way. This is a very out of the ordinary book written with a very personal style.
Perfect
I loved all of it and disliked none of it!!! I can’t wait for the follow up. Perfect in every respect. Well bloody done!! ☺️☺️
