*** 3 stars
I liked but didn't love this book club choice. It was very readable and I always appreciate that! I was curious how the author would "justify" a man having so many children and abandoning them. I'm not sure I was convinced; maybe I'm not supposed to be. I did enjoy the stories of the daughters and their lives and how they learned to become sisters.
This is the first book that I've read by this author. I see she has written a ton of stuff; many have been marked as to-be-read on my shelves. I'm not sure I would go out of my way to read her again but sometimes you need a good, pleasant, dependable read (airplanes, car trips, etc.). I will keep her in mind for times like that!
Totally beside the point but it bugs me so much that Goodreads has the name of this book wrong! Ugh! There's no "that" in the title. How does that happen? I would have thought the book data was an automated thing. Weird!
