This Sunday in the U. S. is Mother's Day, in celebration, what are some of your favorite books with strong mother/child relationships?
My list:
Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood and The Crowning Glory of Calla Lily Ponder by Rebecca Wells
Aftertaste by Meredith Mileti
The Darkest Child by Delores Phillips
Mama Ruby by Mary Monroe
All That Glitters by Alisa Rodriguez Valdes
Becoming Latina in 10 Easy Steps by Lara Rios
Unbeweaveable by Katrina Spencer
I loved the Ya Ya books when I first read them. There's something about an epic family tale that boils down to one mother daughter relationship that is timeless.
ReplyDeleteI might check out the Becoming Latina book - I love books with a cultural heritage theme that don't always take themselves too seriously (like an Oprah book club pick, although I've read some good ones there). Sometimes I just want a fun romance with a little bit of culture depth to it. Thanks!
I don't know if I've read an Oprah's book club book. Thanks for stopping by!:)
DeleteI haven't read any of those, I'll definitely be checking them out! Check out my FF @ http://best-of-ya.blogspot.com/2012/05/feature-follow-friday-20.html. I'm a new follower, by the way! :)
