The Memory Library
by Kate Storey
The Memory Library by Kate Storey is a wonderfully, touching, inspirational story about a mother-daughter relationship. Sally was blessed with one child, a daughter Ella. Sally, a teacher, loved to share stories with her daughter so each year on her birthday, she would buy Ella a book and write a loving note inside the book with the lesson she would like her to learn. When Ella's becomes a teenager, she and her mother have a disagreement and Ella runs off to Australia. Their relationship becomes estranged for 22 years, until Ella receives a call that her mother is in the hospital, forcing Ella to return home. Will this reuniting make or break their tenuous relationship?
I absolutely loved this book from start to finish. As both a mother and a daughter, I could relate to both Sally and Ella. This story made me look at my own relationships with my mother and my daughter. It was touching, a heart warming and a heart breaking tale at the same time. This book teaches you about how what you perceive and what is true can be two totally different things. It shows you that misunderstandings can be life altering and that communication is the solution. You will tear up numerous times as you read this delightful story so be sure to have tissues on hand. I will cherish this book and it has inspired me to start my own memory library for my daughter.
Thanks to Netgally and Avon Books for the advanced copy. The opinions are my own.
