![]() I think it will make the book a great point of discussion for our book club as there are sure to be varying views on Jude and her parenting. Truthfully Jude annoyed the heck out of me as a mother, which is ironically one of the reasons I found the novel so compelling. The one event she never planned for is a tragedy that takes place along Night Road after a night of teenage drinking. She is super involved in her children’s lives down to planning where they will go to college. Since she’s had the twins, she has tried to be the loving mother that she never had. Mia and Zach’s mother Jude is a helicopter Mom. ![]() Mia and Lexi soon become best friends, while Lexi also harbors a secret crush for Zach. She feels like an outcast until she meets Mia and her twin brother Zach. Lexi attends a school full of rich kids on Pine Island in Washington State. Aunt Eva doesn’t have much in the way of material goods, but she does have a lot of love. An orphan after her mother dies from a drug overdose she goes to live with her Great-Aunt Eva. Lexi Baill is a girl from the wrong side of the tracks. ![]() It was a great page turner with many plot points to discuss at our FLICKS book and movie club next week, particularly since we are a book club of mothers. I’ve been reading a lot of good books lately, Night Road was another book that I literary couldn’t put down, reading far too late into the night. ![]()
