Midwest Book Review
I have never seen a book quite like this. Reading the perspectives of both mother and daughter was a unique experience. When we are in it, it is hard to see past our pain. Leslie and Lindsey widened the lens on mother-daughter relationships so we could see not only the complexity of the problems, but also the journey to repair them. This makeover is a great book on making up with excellent exercises and thought-provoking writing prompts. For best results, I recommend both mother and daughter read it simultaneously and see what happens!
