Daisy Buchanan is the author most recently of the memoir The Sisterhood, a book about growing up as the eldest of six girls. She and I talked about the books she recommend to her sisters, why Judy Blume's novels have been so formative for so many of us, what book covers featuring the back of a woman's head have going for them, and more.
