Mama Day

Every so often I read a book that I might never have picked up because I'm in a book club, and I discover a true gem that someone was wise enough to place in my hands. This book is all of that. Take an island just off the coast between South Carolina and Georgia that belongs to neither state, run by a Matriarch called Mama Day. Add in mystical powers and a connection to the island that Mama Day and her family has. Add in a daughter of the island who goes to NYC and falls in love. You've got yourself a good story that draws you right in and keeps your interest. Lots to discuss for book clubs!
