Great book; touching and evocative story of mothers and daughters. You grow up thinking you'll never be like your mother, and you'll never treat your own daughter the way you were treated. But history has a strange and sometimes wonderful way of repeating itself!

Three generations of women, each an navigating her times as best she can, wondering about the decisions that her mother made and why her mother doesn't understand the decisions she makes.

This would probably be my favorite book by Morsi. There are more layers to this book, than I expected. It is not only mother/daughter relationships, but a pretty real discussion about women's roles and how they have changed over the past 50 yrs. Decisions that one makes are tied to the options available. Characters had depth, with people not being totally good or bad, such is life.

Easy read about an interesting mother and daughter. Kind of sad. It's set in McKinney, Dallas and Houston so if you're from there, you might be especially interested.

I absolutely loved this book about the relationship between a mother and a daughter and all the trials and tribulations they both go through. It's a story about love, strength, and finding yourself again. Highly recommend it!

Great book about mothers and daughters. The 1950's mother and her 1970's daughter disagree about everything... but everyone says they are so alike.

3 generations of women in a family in a small town in Texas. It was very hard to care about the first protagonist as she was so narrow minded, and controlling. However, it is a good book about mother daughter relationships and worth the read.
