Book Ideas For Mom
With Mother’s Day nearly upon us, don’t forget to pick up a great book for mom. Then, make sure part of your gift is giving her the peace and quiet to enjoy said book.
Here are some great suggestions…hot off the presses. Happy Mother’s Day!
HOME REPAIR by Liz Rosenberg. Eve has lost two husbands: one in a tragic car accident and one to a vanishing act right in the middle of their garage sale. Different circumstances, same outcome. She’s left with the son from her first husband, the daughter from her second husband, and her mother who comes to “help.” But life goes on. Eve might even end up learning that she’s gained much more than she’s lost. A great story of love, family, and survival, and a perfect way to show mom how much she’s appreciated.
LARRY’S KIDNEY by Daniel Asa Rose. Okay this is not women’s fiction, but it is just wacky enough that mom might just love it. Larry Feldman desperately needed a kidney. After two god-awful years on dialysis while waiting on a transplant list behind 74,000 other Americans, he decided to risk everything and travel to China, the controversial kingdom of organ transplants. But, since he was already shelling out for a trip to China, he decided to make it a twofer: He arranged to pick up an email-order bride while he was at it.
So begins the quest to rejuvenate Larry’s failing body and ever-romantic heart, while avoiding getting tossed into a Chinese slammer. An unforgettable adventure filled with Red Guards who waltz at midnight and former enemies who prove more true than family, LARRY’S KIDNEY is the funniest yet most heartwarming book of the year. What better gift for mom?
Lots of great choices. Or, don’t make a choice and get them all!
I, of course, already got the marigolds my son planted in pre-K and the card he made. love them!! But I wouldn’t mind a good book to go with it. Hint hint!
What was your favorite mother’s day gift–to give or get?
