Consent

Saskia and Jenny are twins who couldn't be more different. While Saskia focuses intently on her studies, her sister Jenny lives life to the fullest. When Jenny is severely injured in an accident, Saskia puts her life on hold to care for her. Meanwhile, Sara and Mattie have a complicated relationship as sisters. Sara's love of luxury and fine things hides a deep-seated need for control, while Mattie's intellectual disability makes her vulnerable to exploitation.

When their mother passes away, the dynamics between the sisters shift dramatically. Sara inherits the responsibility of caring for Mattie, but discovers that she has married their mother's handyman. The relationship ends in tragedy, leaving both sisters to pick up the pieces and navigate their complicated feelings towards each other. As they come together through a series of unexpected events, Saskia and Sara are forced to confront the complexities of familial duty, love, guilt, resentment, and regret.

Razor-sharp and profoundly moving, Consent is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience. With its unflinching portrayal of difficult relationships and the consequences of our choices, this book will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to navigate the complexities of family life.
