Episode Description

Zibby interviews New York Times bestselling authors Susan and James Patterson about Things I Wish I Told My Mother, an irresistible, funny, and heartfelt novel about a dynamic mother-daughter duo, their spontaneous trip to Europe, and the lifetime of secrets they finally unpack while abroad. Susan talks about her own mother, who lived to 98 and inspired this novel, and shares how much fun she had collaborating with Susan DiLallo (and James!) on this project. The two also share some of their own parent stories, the books they’ve read recently and loved, and the details of their book tour!
