A Woman in Your Own Right: Assertive Communication
I adored both book and series. I have since read all of Adam Kay's subsequent releases. He has a great voice (both in how he writes and reads the audiobooks!), you'll laugh and you'll genuinely despair.

This was delicious and devastating. A mother daughter relationship is so special and so nuanced. I'd definitely recommend listening to the author read the audiobook. I felt the loss so intimately.
