"This book is important to every mother and daughter, and to every woman who wants to be one." MAYA ANGELOU

A city-loving, single New York DJ braces for disaster when she reluctantly moves to the Bible Belt to care for her estranged, doll-obsessed, hoarder mother. What unfolds in this bestselling memoir is a hilarious, heartbreaking love story that sees eldercare and making peace with the past in a most unexpected way.
