It’s no secret I love books…so of course for Mother’s Day I have to recommend a few of my fave fiction books about mothers and daughters! There’s a little bit of everything here, from suspense to historical fiction. These would be great gifts for a mom who enjoys reading—or maybe a great start to a mother-daughter book club. ;)
I’ve linked the book titles to Goodreads so you can read the blurbs, but you can find them at bookstores like Hastings or Barnes & Noble, online from the Book Depository or Amazon, or in e-book form for Mom’s favorite device.
The Snow Child, by Eowyn Ivey; The Forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton; Death of a Nightingale, by Lene Kaaberbol and Agnete Friis; Lost Lake, by Sarah Addison Allen; Garden Spells, by Sarah Addison Allen; Heartbroken, by Lisa Unger; Divergent, by Veronica Roth; Just What Kind of Mother Are You?, by Paula Daly.

Thanks Martha! I’ve just read the Goodreads blurb for Death of a Nightingale & it’s now winging it’s way to Ireland! A couple of the others have made it to the wish list!

I hope you enjoy it! I really want to pick up the other books in the series. :) I can’t get enough Nordic crime fiction, it’s an obsession!

I’ve read The Snow Child…very good, and interesting story about the author as well! There are some good ones listed there, maybe I can read them at a later date :)

I would love to see Ivey write another book. She has such a vivid imagination!
