The Mystery Guest by Grégoire Bouiller

Grégoire Bouiller receives the surprise of a lifetime when his ex-lover calls him to extend an invitation. At first he's not sure what to think because she ghosted him before the term was widely used. It's not often an ex calls without an ulterior motive, but he decides to head to the party she'd like him to attend.

It's there he begins to find his inspiration for art and even falls in love after thinking he'd never get over the woman who left him.

The Motherload: Episodes from the Brink of Motherhood by Sarah Hoover

Sarah Hoover's recollections about motherhood prove that not everyone has a euphoric experience that begins with them proclaiming how perfect their baby is. Her problem is that she expected her journey to look like that and faced a range of emotions when she saw how different things felt for her. She had the amazing job, husband, and friendships, but it felt like she was losing herself all for the sake of being a mother. Once she understood she was in the middle of postpartum depression, Hoover was able to start accepting her new normal one day at a time.

In her mind, The Motherload: Episodes from the Brink of Motherhood isn't meant to scare anyone or dish about the horrid nature of motherhood. It's a powerfully honest (and sometimes hilarious) book that seeks to normalize what some mothers are afraid to talk about.
