Comment On Out Of Books Home for the Holidays (The Mother-Daughter Book Club #5)

Home for the Holiday is the penultimate book in one of my favorite middle grade series, the Mother Daughter Book Club. We've been with these girls since they were eleven years old. Now they're fifteen turning sixteen. The book club goes on. The club even grew from four daughters to five. Now the girls consist of Emma, Cassie, Jess, Megan, and Becca.Each book in the series is set during a different year in the girls' lives. In a slight twist, Home for the Holidays took place during the first half

In the fifth book in the MDBC, exciting things happen. Home for the Holidays is a perfect book to read with a warm mug of hot cocoa. In the fifth book, There is sadness, joy, and the taste of the holidays. They read the Betsey-tacy books, which how the author describes it make me want to read them too. There are relationships, breakups, and boyfriends. Cassidy faces the tough decision of moving to California. Becca deals with her struggles with her family. Jess deals with disappointment, then

Home for the HolidaysBy Heather Vogel FrederickThere are 5 main characters, Becca, Megan, Jess, Emma, and Cassidy.The chapters are in the point of view of a different character and then it repeats. Each chapter ends in a conflict or a resolution with each character.The themes that I picked out were friendship and love because each characters chapters had either a friendship problem or a love problem.

Earlier this year I was introduced to both the Betsy-Tacy books and to Heather Vogel Frederick's Mother-Daughter Book Club, and I fell in love on both scores. It turns out that HVF too is a BT fan, and this book spectacularly brings both series together. In their sophomore year of high school, the girls of the M-DBC read the Betsy-Tacy series, and the result is classic Maud and classic HVF. At the end of this book there was nothing to do but sigh contentedly and reach for Heaven to Betsy for a

*** Warning: This review contains spoilers! *** While all the books of this series have involved boys to some extent, this book seemed to veer away from the "coming of age" gestalt that characterized earlier books and more towards "chick lit". There was just an awful lot about boys in this book, what with Jess and Emma having boyfriends, Cassidy finally being interested in boys, and Becca and Megan fighting over a boy. Of course, this being the fifth book in the series, I'm already invested in

I thought this book was awesome (like all the others in the series), if "The Mother Daughter Book Club" is not on your to-read list you have got to put it on.

Great fun to see the five heroines (and their families!) of this series reading Betsy-Tacy! While it was difficult at times to distinguish between the characters, the author's love of her craft and her appreciation of Maud Hart Lovelace made this book a delight to read.
