Life on the Refrigerator Door is an intimate portrait of the relationship between a hardworking mother and her teenage daughter during the course of a life-altering year.

Beautifully told through notes left on the fridge door, it is about how we live our lives constantly rushing about, never making time for those we love.

    I love a book which can evoke emotion. This is a really quick read or in my case listen. If you want something powerful which you can finish in one setting, this is the book for you.
