A miracle pregnancy turns a 55-year-old woman into a social media star. Will her new life bring her the joy she longs for, or tear her family apart?
Hannah Murrow is ecstatic. After a lifetime of infertility, she has somehow become pregnant at 55! But the news leaves her adopted daughter, Natty, feeling alienated, and worse, leads Hannah’s husband, Ryan, to threaten her with divorce if she proceeds with the pregnancy.
Devastated by Ryan’s hidden reasons for opposing late-in-life fatherhood, Hannah nevertheless decides to hold onto her dream, even reluctantly accepting the plan Natty and her boyfriend propose to turn the improbable pregnancy into a marketing opportunity. While Hannah quickly embraces her status as social media celebrity “Saint Hannah,” relishing the attention and newly strengthened relationship with Natty it produces, her longed-for pregnancy proves to be a double-edged sword – bringing physical challenges, envy from her infertile friends, and even a mysterious threat from a stranger.
As her due date approaches, Hannah finds herself forced to reconsider her future with Ryan, her need for validation, and what it means to be a mother – both to the child she’s expecting and to the one she has already raised.
The Book of Hannah: A Tragicomedy in Three Trimesters is a quick, enjoyable read that explores the joys and frustrations of pregnancy, motherhood, and social media stardom, with warmth and a touch of humor.
