Relatable for those who worry about creating their own family. Recommended for fans of I'm Glad My Mom Died and The Words We Keep. Perfect for the broken hearted who wish for a better mother-daughter relationship.
Shelly wants to build the ideal family. Do better than her parents. Except right when she starts, her life shatters as easily as the plate scattered across her kitchen floor.
Her husband tries to help, but there's a part of her past Shelly won't tell anyone, including him. So, she continues to seek help from her hypercritical mother. As the tension in the relationship with her mom increases, Shelly is pressured into flying cross country to see her. If this trip goes well, maybe she can leave the past behind. Maybe she can fix her relationship with her mom.
Or, at the very least, maybe she won't become like her: alone.
