If you’re looking for a great gift for Mom, we have a list of 10 books that are “Mom approved”. I polled a group of Moms to find out about the best books they have recently read. I’m determined to start reading again this summer. In the past 2 years, I’ve read 2 books that weren’t from the children’s department.

So for a Mother’s Day gift this year, I asked my children to get me a book (with the help of Dad ordering them from Amazon). Below is a list of 20 books that would make great Mother’s Day gifts and also great summer beach reads. There was a time when I was an avid reader, but with 4 little ones in the house I’m down to about 1 per year.  Reading is something I really enjoy, so I’m hoping to at least get through a few of these this summer.

20 Books to Give Mom For Mother’s Day:

1. What Remains
2. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
3. Three Junes
4. Homegoing
5. Olive Kitteridge
6. Four Seasons in Rome
7. In This House We Will Giggle
8. Becoming Bonnie (brand new book written by a college friend!)
