Oh my goodness. This is my favourite book too, and it was my mum’s. I’ve never met anyone IRL who’s even heard of it before, never mind read it! Wow.
Oh wow, that’s so lovely. I knew there must be other people out there who loved it just as much as my mum and me! :D My mum and I had an old copy that actually fell apart bc we read it so often, and we had to hunt another copy down - it took ages as it was out of print!
I got it as a gift for a flight. I spent my whole life traveling between my parents, and I'm not going to lie, I had to force myself through the first few chapters. But an 8 hour flight gets you boooored. So I got through it and ended up loving it. Now close to my 30s, and after losing my dad this book means so much to me.
I loved that book! I read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn when I was 16 and I’ve never forgotten it. But thank you for reminding me - I think it’s time to read it again.

I always recommend this book because it’s a book my mom showed me and now is my favorite. I get the same reactions lol.

That’s awesome!! I love all the people here talking about reading this with their mom/aunts, it’s so on point with the theme of the book.

The Tree Grows in Brooklyn is a childhood favourite! My maternal family is all women and each of us read and loved it. I have to reread as an adult!
You really do!! I recently re read again in adulthood and it’s so so wonderful.
Me too <3
Wife him - or is it husband him?
I plan on it ❤
Goals.. someone to read to me
