5 great books for any mom to read

So as I am writing this post, the first thing that came to me was…

When do moms ever find time to just sit and read anymore?

Pretty much never, BUT when you do get the time, making sure it’s the perfect book is so important.  The worst is when you get a minute to read and the book is totally boring.  I used to love reading fiction novels.  The feeling of just relating to the character like it’s your life.  Being so caught up in the moments and the details, that you feel like you are in another world.

So now maybe it won’t be as serene with kids running around, but there are some pretty fun mom books out there that I would totally recommend everyone to read.  They kinda make you feel like it’s just all OK, no matter what hurdles you have gone through!  Check out my top 5 great books for any mom to read.

Happy Family is a book that reminds you of how your past, present and future can all intertwine.  The characters in the novel are well though out and the experience hey go through are touching.  Between all the roller coasters the authors describes between relationships and life any mom can find a way to relate.

Perfect for the mom who values friendships

Some Women is a book that shows the importance of friendships in any motherhood journey.  It takes a housewives reality show into a more real life story.  It’s entertaining and funny but at the same time shows how women have to find themselves when entering motherhood.  It’s a total beach read but sometime we all need that!
