Things I Want My Daughters to Know

I absolutely LOVED this book! Being a mother of a young daughter myself, my own mortality is on my mind more than ever. This book is about the letters and journal that a dying mother writes to leave for her daughters and how her writing coincides & affects their lives after her death. She was seemingly perfect in life but leaves behind confessions of secrets no one saw coming. It is a very realistic book I think. I took excerpts from the book to write in the journal I keep for my daughter because Noble writes everything down that I've always thought and felt for my daughter, but could never write so eloquently because I could never get through the emotion of it all. I think this is an amazing book, with life lessons for mothers and daughters alike!
