I'm reading the Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarity. I like the way the novel has you asking some pretty intense questions. Who did it? What Would I do in the same situation. What stood out for me was the setting of Sidney, Australia. It wasn't presumptuous like California. It didn't shriek material world or extreme competition. I think the characters give readers a perspective about motherhood that they may have not thought of before. Things like researching your child's project and learning something you never knew. Or being an extremely organized mother and the power that can come from that. It gives a reader a lot to think about besides just being carried away by the plot.
