Willa's Rambles:
Joanna Philbin takes you behind the scenes into the lives of Holla Jones' daughter, Hudson Jones in the last novel in the Daughters series. First it was Lizzie, then Carina, and now Hudson, the one I loved from the moment I met her is The Daughters.
This installment in The Daughters series begins directly after Hudson's failure to sing on stage at their school dance that Carina put together. Hudson describes how her mother reacts to Hudson's stage fright and the issues between her and her mother over that night. Hudson's biggest issue throughout the entire novel is her mother, who controls Hudson's life to the point of what Hudson eats. When a friend at school offers to be Hudson's life coach, Hudson decides to give it a try.
About halfway through the book, Hudson discovers again why she loves playing music and writing it, but this time with a jazz band outside of the city. Together the band helps Hudson rediscover who she really is and why she first wanted to make the album that changed it all.
