A Book a Week – Between Sisters

I generally pay attention to an author if her name happens to pop up several times in a week. And Kristin Hannah did exactly that. I read about her in several blogs, all about different books. So I thought it was time I read one of hers. I looked around a bit and decided to giveBetween Sisters a try.

I must admit that it was hard to get into it. I didn’t like her voice or her writing for a while. I kept waiting for the story to begin. Hundred pages in, I still didn’t care too much for any of the characters. Too one dimensional, too obvious. I could tell it would be one of those Hollywood stories of strife and sadness but a perfect, happy ending.

And it was.

But somewhere along the line, I did sort of start to like the characters. They all grew in their own ways a bit and in the end I was sort of sad to see them go. All in all, I am not sure I will read any more of her stories but I cannot say that I hated it fully. Just a little too simplistic and obvious. But it was a happy ending and I needed one of those after the hard books I’ve been reading.

All in all, it was ok.
