Summary

*WITH A FOREWORD FROM REESE WITHERSPOON*

A collection of deeply personal conversations from award-winning actress and activist Laura Dern and the woman she admires most, her mother-legendary actress Diane Ladd.

What happens when we are brave enough to speak our truths to the ones we love the most?

Laura Dern and Diane Ladd always had a close relationship, but the stakes were raised when Diane developed a sudden life-threatening illness. Diane's doctor prescribed long walks to build back her lung capacity. The exertion was challenging, and Laura soon learned the best way to distract her mom was to get her talking and telling stories.

Their conversations along the way began to break down the traditional barriers between mothers and daughters. They discussed the most personal topics: love, sex, marriage, divorce, art, ambition, and legacy. In Honey, Baby, Mine, Laura and Diane share these conversations, as well as reflections and anecdotes, taking listeners on an intimate tour of their lives. Complementing these candid exchanges, they have included photos, family recipes, and other mementos. The result is a celebration of the power of leaving nothing unsaid that will make you want to call the people you love the most and start talking.

Life Lessons

Delightful, loving, brutal and honest. THIS is the way to have deep, and sometimes difficult, conversations.

A beautiful mother and daughter reflection

I loved this book. Listening to a mother and daughter have such open conversations was beautiful, and heart wrenching at times. They had their issues, they love each other but they didn’t pander to each other. They reflected on their hard times, their mistakes, their highlights, and what they learnt from all of it along the way.
