This book, written by Alice Kuipers, is a collection of notes between a mother and daughter. The daughter is named Claire, while the mother is known as simply "Mom" throughout. Like most of us these days, they are super busy. Claire has school, homework, friends, babysitting, and boys. Her mom is a doctor working with cancer patients and has a very hectic schedule. As a result, they are always leaving notes on the fridge. As the story develops, we learn that Claire's mom is, herself, ill, and how Claire will deal with that.
This whole book really is just notes back and forth. I am a big fan of books written as letters and this was very similar. It was a quick read that I really couldn't put down.
