Susan Patterson & James Patterson: The Mother-Daughter Book Club (USA 2026)

From the Publisher:
Instant New York Times Bestseller!
The Mother-Daughter Book Club is Susan and James Patterson's new novel, the follow-up to Things I Wish I Told My Mother -- the New York Times bestselling, book club favorite praised novel.

"An entertaining book... As friends talk books, hopes, dreams... and dishy revelations... it's romantic love -- both old and new... that drive[s] the story forward." -- Kirkus Reviews

Between their busy lives and their far-flung residences, the Mother-Daughter Book Club -- four longtime college friends and their five daughters -- more often discuss the books on their nightstands via 2 a.m. texts than in-person meetings. And maybe it's just as well, after what happened at their last get-together...

So it's an emotional reunion when they finally gather again, this time on the spectacular shores of Italy's Lake Como. Sightseeing excursions, reminiscing fueled by "Como-politans," and a hint of vacation romance all build toward the book club's trademark "Night of Secrets."

These friends, and sometime rivals, are close readers -- of novels, memoirs, and of each other. But as the years and the distance cast shadows and doubt, confidences and sympathies turn into surprising revelations.
