Kara recommends "The Rest of Her Life"

This was a great read for a book discussion! The story deals with the relationship between a mother and her teenage daughter and the how the relationship is altered my misconceptions of each other; especially after the daughter accidentally kills someone while driving. The story is shown through the eyes of the mother, enlightening the reader by showing us how her own experiences shaped the way she chose to "mother" her children. Both characters surprise and relate to each other in the story.
