The Push - Part 1

36 - Welcome back for the LAST happy hour book of Season One!  This month we're reading the suspenseful thriller The Push by Ashley Audrain while cautiously sipping on The Violet. Well, Mariana's not drinking The Violet because she's just announced SHE'S PREGNANT!!! (Swipe right on The Violet to get a peek at the soothing and summery Lavender Lemonade mocktail for mamas like Mariana!) In talking about Blythe's difficult relationship with motherhood, we talk about our biggest fears in relation to motherhood, how having children can affect your relationship with your spouse, and times when we women have neglected our own instincts to satisfy societal and familial expectations.

Chapters Discussed:  Chapters 1-22

Next Week:  Chapters 23-44

Join us again for Happy Hour next Thursday, and follow us on Insta @AreTheseBooksDrunk for updates on our next episode & cocktail pairing so that you can read along and sip along with us!
