Books like Black Sheep by Rachel Harrison
Vesper Wright left her tightly‑wired, religious community at eighteen, assuming it would never return her. An unexpected envelope, containing a wedding invitation to her cousin Rosie's ceremony on the family farm, shatters that certainty. While an olive branch or a trap might be lurking, Vesper feels an undeniable pull to attend. The trip forces her back into the toxic environment she escaped and brings her face to face with her mother Constance, a former horror film star known as the "ice queen." As family memories rise, Vesper confronts hidden truths that challenge her beliefs and force her to reassess what family can mean.

Who knew that having sex could reduce stress, or a cheeky whisky could give you the edge at charades? Is it really true that people who are smart swear more and that dropping the F-bomb makes great pain relief? Black Sheep is a fascinating left-field tour of the world of psychological science. More pub conversation than science book, it casts a slant on a range of human experiences from life to death, sex to romance, from speed thrills to halting boredom and from drinking alcohol (in moderation) to headily excessive bad language. There are numerous hidden benefits of being bad that you really won't have seen coming.
