The Mothers Book Club

In this week’s Book Club episode, we’re back with The Mothers by Sarah J. Naughton—and let’s just say this group of moms gives “mom drama” a whole new meaning. From neurodivergent kids to loveless marriages, verbal abuse, and the unbearable weight of child loss, each woman is hiding a truth she hopes never sees the light of day. But when tragedy strikes, secrets start slipping faster than a juice box at recess.

Join us as we unpack listener reactions, explore the messy realities of modern motherhood, and dish on which character we’d definitely side-eye at pickup. Was this sisterhood forged out of loyalty… or survival? Grab your cocktail, find a quiet corner (preferably one where no toddlers are asking for snacks), and let’s dive into the drama together.
