♥ Another Fall Read

I should write a book called "Confessions of a Bookaholic " because I have yet another book to suggest for you !! :)
This next one is different from the previous, since I know not everyone has the same taste in books :)
I thought I would review something a little more drama-oriented this time around.
The book : Not my Daughter , the author : Barbara Delinsky.

Reading this book felt like watching a movie, one of those " based on a true story " ones. Lilly, 17, announces she is pregnant to her mother Susan. Worse still , 2 of Lilly's best friends announce the same thing to their mothers, who happen to be best friends with Lilly's mom.
As the town takes sides and Susan and her friends are forced to deal with the reality of becoming grandmothers very soon, the drama builds and you feel closer to these very real characters. Will Susan be forced to leave her job as school principal because of her daughters' choices ? Will friendship prevail over the judgements being brought on these mothers and their daughters ?

Barbara Delinsky has the uncanny ability to never over-do the Drama that she brings to her books, it always feels real and relatable.
Personally, I wish the book had been longer - I would have loved to follow the daughters in their aftermath and struggles.
This very simple story makes you feel like you are part of it,and is a very enjoyable weekend read. So head to a book store and then curl up with this little gem.

Have a great day :)
