____________________________
The other mothers know best. Don't they?
Claire is expecting a baby. It's her dream but not everyone is as supportive as she'd like . . .
Isolated and vulnerable, she is drawn into an online group for 'natural motherhood' and is warmly embraced by the sisterhood.
As Claire withdraws further into their world and with her due date fast approaching, she is unsettled by the group's conformity and the total shunning of medical intervention.
But blind loyalty can be catastrophic - and her silence could be fatal . . .
Raw, compulsive, and utterly heartwrenching, BABY TEETH is a story about the choices mothers make and the split second between having it all and losing everything...

Recenzii
This propulsive story is a cautionary tale about how vulnerable, isolated people can be lured into toxic communities and the catastrophic consequences this can have. It's a beautifully written account that incorporates the traumas and anxieties associated with infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy, moving slowly with a mounting sense of dread towards a startling finale
Celia Silvani perfectly captures the vulnerability of someone wanting to fit in. As her much-wanted baby's birth looms nearer, Claire is drawn ever deeper into a dark online sisterhood intent on being right at all costs. Truly unnerving
Clever, astute and subtly chilling, this novel made me extremely nervous - in a good way! With masterful pacing, the tension slowly tightens as Claire descends deeper into the toxic pull of 'mummy forums'. Celia writes effortlessly about the vulnerabilities of fertility struggles, motherhood and the different directions in which we are pulled when we are at our most fragile. I was totally absorbed
A gripping debut. Enough plot twists to warrant reading Baby Teeth in one sitting - and perhaps a Netflix adaptation in the near future.
I HIGHLY recommend picking up a copy!
Disturbing, thought-provoking, and impossible to shake
A brilliantly original tale
This emotional roller coaster will keep you gripped until the very end
This gripping tale will keep you hooked
Celia Silvani is an astute, subtle writer. Razor-edged, unsettling and compelling. Darkly perceptive.
A truly nuanced take on a very complex issue. Silvani wears her research lightly, and I genuinely couldn't tear my eyes away from [...] a tense and absorbing read! Loved it.
A brilliant, tense story with beautifully drawn characters and so much emotion. I loved it.
A gripping and timely story exploring the darker edges of fertility. A magnificent debut.
This is an immersive and utterly compelling story that explores the challenges of parenting and motherhood and the lure of online circles that present as a safe space but prove to be anything but. Through Claire's eyes and experience, Celia Silvani reveals more and more layers of this unsettling online world, while ratcheting up the tension with skill and restraint. This is a timely and deftly plotted tale that I basically inhaled over the course of a weekend and highly recommend.
At once gripping and deeply moving, Silvani shows how fear and longing can pull any of us into dangerous places.
