Any recommendations on novels about single mothers? I love a good fiction love story also! Going on a trip to London and going to need a couple good reads for the plane ride! Thanks in advance. 🙂

Any recommendations on novels about single mothers?

Room!

Where the Heart is by Emily Giffin

I was thinking something Blue because of London!, but start with something borrowed to get the whole story.

Billie Letts?

Emily Giffin wrote Heart of the Matter; Billie Letts wrote Where the Heart is. The latter being one of my favorites.

Jennifer thank you! I had a feeling I had the wrong title. Heart of the Matter was a great book

Denise I’ve never read Heart of the Matter. I’ll have to check it out.

A book by JoJo Moyes (Me Before You) called One Plus One. I loved it even more than MBY!

Amanda Question author

Just bought One Plus One since it was only $1.99 on IBooks! Thank you 🙂

good choice!

I so enjoyed One Plus One. Fun book loved it

Where the Heart Is by Billie Letts; Plainsong by Kent Haruf

Also, while not a novel, Anne Lamott (a wonderful author and single mother) wrote: Operating Instructions: A Journal of My Son’s First Year

I’m reading The Garden of Small Beginnings by Abbi Waxman right now and really liking it.

Any of the books by Joyce Maynard? There was one I’m sure, cannot remember title.

Inheriting Edith

I really enjoyed Shem Creek / Dorothea Benton Frank. A feel-good one😊

Try Gil McNeil. I love her female characters.

The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver
