Hey! Tori here, and I'm just here to say that this is technically a crossover, but I couldn't find a category for the other book(which is Main Street by Ann M. Martin). Youc an search it up but you're probably not gonna find a lot of good results. The characters for Main Street are Flora, Ruby, Olivia, and Nikki, so now you won't be confused haha. Anyways I do not own The Mother Daughter Book Club or Main Street, obviously. On with the story!

Emma

It was an average Wednesday morning. It was absolutely freezing outside since it was another abnormally cold winter in Concord, Massachusetts. I ran a hand through my extremely curly hair with a sigh. Why must it be so uncontrollable in the mornings? I walked over to the bay window in the corner of my room and opened the curtains. Before me, I saw the street covered in a blanket of white, untouched snow. I gasped and cheered.

"Yes!" I yelled and ran down the stairs where my mom was in the kitchen making breakfast.

"What are you doing up so early Emma? It's a snow day today." She said with a plate of stacked pancakes in her hand. She was wearing her blue fuzzy robe that always looks so warm. I began to shiver in my over-sized t-shirt I won from a library contest and pajama bottoms.

"I didn't know. There is so much snow outside! Today is going to be so fun! I have to go and call Jess!" I said as I made my way to the phone in the living room. Even though I'm almost 13, my mom still won't let me have my own cell phone, which is a huge bummer.

"Wait, before you call Jess, I have to tell you something!" mom called to me from the kitchen. I saw her put down the plates through the door, and she rushed over to me without knocking into any of the numerous bookshelves around my house. My entire family is book crazy. There are books in every room in the house, even the bathroom! My parents love Jane Austen and even named me and my brother Darcy after characters from her books!

I put down the phone and faced her. "Yes?" I said, curious as to what she was to tell me.

"Over the weekend, we're going to visit my good friend's house over in Camden Falls! There's a reading convention there, and I just couldn't let my wonderful Mother-Daughter book club miss it, could I?" she said excitedly. Normally, I would be beyond excited, ecstatic even. But not today.

"Mom, Jess, Cassidy, Megan, and I were supposed to go to the big Concord Comets celebration party this weekend! We can't go to Camden Falls!" I yelled. This was the first time I ever really yelled at my mom, and I felt guilty for it. But this was also the first time I've been invited to a party as exclusive as the Concord Comets(which is Concord's winning little league hockey team) celebration party! I couldn't just miss it because of some silly little reading convention!

"Well, I'm sorry, but you're going to have to miss it young lady. If anything, you should be happy about this! You love reading and this is the perfect place to show it! And I'm doing you a favor of inviting your friends too." She said sternly. She rarely gets upset, so I knew I had ticked her off a little. But then I realized, everyone else is coming too? They'll just blame me for taking them away from the party!

"No mom, that wouldn't be necessary. The rest of the book club doesn't need to come—"

"It's already decided. The other moms and I already discussed it during yoga. They're all coming to Camden Falls, where we'll stay with my friend Min Reed." She said as my heart fell in my stomach. Great, guess who everyone will be mad at on Friday when they get the news.
