Jarry Lee / BuzzFeed
2. "As mothers and daughters, we are connected with one another. My mother is the bones of my spine, keeping me straight and true. She is my blood, making sure it runs rich and strong. She is the beating of my heart. I cannot now imagine a life without her."
―Kristin Hannah, Summer Island
3. "Sometimes, mothers say and do things that seem like they don't want their kids ... but when you look more closely, you realize that they're doing those kids a favor. They're just trying to give them a better life."
―Jodi Picoult, Handle with Care
4. "Mothers and their children are in a category all their own. There's no bond so strong in the entire world. No love so instantaneous and forgiving."

52 Krazy Things I Learned When I Read Kim K's Selfie Book
Two days, 445 pages, and countless selfies later, I survived Selfish.
I have something to admit: I'm a bit of a closeted Kim Kardashian fan. I love her sense of style, the fact that she's risen to the top of the celebrity food chain, and her incredible hustle. You can't knock Kim's hustle!
E!
Most of all, I'm here for her unapologetic self-promotion on her Instagram, aka her series of #iconic selfies. It should come as NO surprise that she has a book — appropriately titled Selfish — devoted to her selfies. I knew I had to give it a read.
1. Kim took her first selfie in 1984. It was on a disposable camera, and her sister Khloé was also in the picture. #Memz
2. Kim claims she "never really travelled" until she met Paris Hilton. Apparently, the blonde reality star showed Kim "a whole new world." Classic Paris!
3. According to Kim, your car is the best place for a selfie "before you step out into the madness." Unlike Kim, however, most of us are not faced with an onslaught of paparazzi when we exit our motor vehicle; I would take this with a grain of salt.
4. Apparently, Kim has a near-photographic memory. She claims she can look at any picture of herself and remember not only where the photo is from, but who she was with AND who did her hair and makeup. Impressive!
5. Kim uses the word "glam" as a noun, verb, and adjective. I did not know you could do this before reading Selfish.
6. Kim really likes getting her hair and makeup done, and calls it "therapeutic."
7. Kim has been to Indianapolis. IDK, I just find this kind of surprising! Now I want to know what other random places she's been. Has she been to Des Moines? What about Omaha? Has she been to Sioux City???
19 Badass Literary Moms Who Will Teach You How To Live
Don’t mess with moms.
Molly Weasley (Harry Potter series, J.K. Rowling)
Molly may be mother to Ron, Ginny, & co., but her nurturing knows no bounds, taking both Harry and Hermione in as family. But she's not just loving and attentive (though she very much is) — she also puts her life on the line to protect her kids.
Warner Bros.
Catelyn Stark (A Song of Fire and Ice series, George R.R. Martin)
If you mess with the Stark kids, you've got a violent and vengeful Catelyn on your heels. This woman goes through hell to protect her family, and it's a pretty thankless job, but there's no way she couldn't do it. She's ice cold and lives for that sweet, sweet revenge.
HBO / Via iheartgot.tumblr.com
Charley Bordelon (Queen Sugar, Natalie Baszile)
Single mother Charley Bordelon has the odds stacked against her when she moves from LA with her teenage daughter to take over the sugarcane farm in Louisiana left to her by her late father. No one expects her to succeed — she has to learn how to actually farm the land, while fighting for her place in a traditionally white man's business — but she's got sheer determination and strength on her side.
Marilla Cuthbert (Anne of Green Gables, L. M. Montgomery)
Marilla is a severe and straightforward woman but that's just because she knows how to get shit done. It doesn't mean she doesn't love Anne — whom she welcomes into her home and family — and it doesn't mean she's all business. She's had her fun, too.
