About "The Night Journal"

I gave "The Night Journal" by Elizabeth Crook 3 stars.  This is the second time I have read this book, and I really liked it this time.  I think I liked it last time, but I liked it more this time.  

This is the story of 4 generations of women.  Hannah, the oldest, has long since died, and left her night journals (diaries) to her daughter, Claudia.  Claudia had them published and has spent her life championing them.  Meg, Hannah's great granddaughter, has never read them.  This is the story of Meg finally reading the journals, of family dynamics, and of closure.  Good book!
