Spring Retreat Our theme was Mothers and Daughters and we’ll each read the same two books, Daughters of the New Year and Nonfiction: A Novel, ahead of time. We moved beyond the sentimental mother daughter relationships often depicted on Mother’s Day cards and in Hallmark movies to grittier and more challenging relationships.
See Sally’s staff picks for reviews of the books.
