You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I thought I remembered reading about mother-daughter book club ideas somewhere...was it in a post here...on someone's blog maybe? Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I have a dear friend with twin dds ages 11, public schooled, and AVID readers. She is looking for some summer fun with her girls, and I suggested a book club for the three of them...

Anyone want to contribute ideas, must-read titles for moms and daughters, or direct me to appropriate resources?
Thank you so much!

I read The Mother-Daughter Book Club years ago, and really enjoyed the ideas. Some of the book lists in it would not be my top choices, but there are plenty to chose from, and the book is full of ideas on how to do the book club--dinners, discussions, etc.
