Heartfelt, touching and unforgettable, Life on the Refrigerator Door captures the impenetrable fabric that connects mothers and daughters throughout the world and delivers universal lessons about love in a wonderfully simple and poignant narrative.

Claire and her mother are running out of time, but they don't know it. Not yet. Claire is wrapped up with the difficulties of her bourgeoning adulthood—boys, school, friends, identity; Claire's mother, a single mom, is rushed off her feet both at work and at home. They rarely find themselves in the same room at the same time, and it often seems that the only thing they can count on are notes to each other on the refrigerator door. When home is threatened by a crisis, their relationship experiences a momentous change. Forced to reevaluate the delicate balance between their personal lives and their bond as mother and daughter, Claire and her mother find new love and devotion for one another deeper than anything they had ever imagined.

Details

I wish it had more details for when Claire hung out with her Mom. Like when they ate dinner or breakfast, or when they’d hang out in the yard, or when they took their walks near the river. I with it had more details like that cause it adds more character.

Cried like a baby

OMG this story got me crying so bad. It was touching, well written and reminded me of day to day life. I got it cause I love Dana Delaney. It was 5 star to me.

Sappy

Sappy, mom dies leaving heartbroken daughter. Unoriginal and sappy. Waste of money novella. Do not buy.
