The Mother-Daughter Book Club: A Novel

By James Patterson and Susan Patterson

Instant New York Times Bestseller! The Mother-Daughter Book Club is Susan and James Patterson's latest novel, following the New York Times bestselling book club favorite Things I Wish I Told My Mother. The Mother-Daughter Book Club--four longtime college friends and their five daughters--more often discuss the books on their nightstands via 2 a.m. texts than in-person meetings. And maybe it's just as well, after what happened at their last get-together... So it's an emotional reunion when they regroup on the spectacular shores of Italy's Lake Como. Sightseeing excursions, reminiscing fueled by "Como-politans," and a hint of vacation romance all build toward the book club's "Night of Secrets." "An entertaining book ... As friends talk books, hopes, dreams ... and dishy revelations ... it's romantic love--both old and new ... that drive[s] the story forward." --Kirkus Reviews
