Feature & Follow Friday (#12)

5/10/2013


The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read.


This week's Question: 

Happy Mother’s Day! Who is your favorite mom from fiction?

 

It took me all of a second to think of this one. I don't know if it's because this book is fresh in my mind from reading it in March, or if there just aren't a whole lot of strong mother figures in YA.  My favorite Mom from fiction, without a doubt has to be Mindy Sheridan. She is so protective of her family, but so funny and supportive.  She came to the U.S. without knowing anyone but had a strong determination to fit in. She respects her son enough to respect his choice in girlfriends.  She is what every parent should be.

    Lucky! I had to browse through my shelves to remember the last book that even had parents in it. I love the cover that book, btw. Definitely going to check it out. New Follower @ Linky, GFC, and BlogLovin'.

    I completely agree. Park's mother is incredible. One of my favorite parts of such an amazing book.
