it’s complicated: mother-child relationships
Fiction & nonfiction books that explore the complexities and traumas of mother-child relationships or in which such relationships play a central role. While many books on this list are what I’d classify as including “mommy issues” there are others that are more about the different perspectives and nuances of the mother-child (often specifically mother-daughter) relationship. Some books center the child, some the mother, some both.
Suggestions are welcome.

Perspectives: Pregnancy and Motherhood
Books centered on characters navigating pregnancy or early motherhood. Reading from differing perspectives on this topic showcases how women from various backgrounds may experience this part of life (even if most on this list are fictional). Their narratives still offer insight into the emotional and psychological realities of pregnancy and early motherhood, and show how it can influence their mental health - for better or for worse.
