Better Believe It

Jada Marlone appears to have the perfect life, with a handsome husband, adorable son, and great career. But her life feels like a facade; incomplete and unsatisfying. Then she runs into her ex-boyfriend and begins to question all her life choices. Her deceased family members begin appearing in her dreams and Jada takes it as a sign to analyze her life and figure out what she wants.

Jada is not the most likable character, but you can understand why she's struggling. Being a working wife and mother is difficult and, too often, women feel like they have to put on a show of how great their lives are, even if they are conflicted inside.

This book is smart, witty, and insightful. The writing is fast-paced and light-hearted, even while diving into more serious or emotional moments. The development of Jada's character throughout was fantastic and the overall story and theme was thought-provoking. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an enjoyable read that delves into deeper topics.
