The Mother-Daughter Book Club

"Between their busy lives and their far-flung residences, the Mother-Daughter Book Club--four longtime 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 finally gather again, this time on the spectacular shores of Italy's Lake Como. Sightseeing excursions, 'Como-politan'-fueled reminiscing, and a hint of vacation romance all build toward the book club's trademark 'Night of Secrets.' These friends, and sometime rivals, are close readers--of novels, memoirs, and of each other. But as the years and the distance cast shadows and doubt, confidences and sympathies turn into surprising revelations." -- Front jacket flap.
