This is a great list, thank you for putting it together! I added some books on my to read list :) Also, it really inspired me, to bring here my paternal relations list that i had on another platform. And while I was doing that I found a few books that have a complicated relation with a mother, I will put them below just in case that you are interested in them:
Love this!!! Ty for the recs :)
I just read I'd Rather Burn than Bloom and the complicated mother-daughter relationship made me cry đ definitely recommend!
