![]() ![]() Sisters starts off weak and cliché, there's no doubt about that, so it's no wonder I didn't feel like forging through it the last time I picked it up. I decided, hey, what the hell why not give it another shot, it's been almost four years and it's not like I had any other books that were calling out to me. ![]() Then I noticed Sisters in a box of my mom's old books. Whatever the reason, I found myself struggling to find a book that I could stand longer than 50 pages (which is one of my biggest pet peeves having to put down a book because it's boring). ![]() Maybe the change in seasons just brings out a craving for a different kind of book than the ones I've been reading all winter. Naturally, I always find myself in a reading slump in the late spring/early summer. I first picked up Sisters over Christmas vacation in 2012, and I wasn't immediately intrigued by anything in the first 70 pages I read, so I decided to move on to something else, but I did want to revisit Sisters eventually. My mom's Danielle Steel books were no exception, so ever since then, I told myself I need to get around to reading one for real. I grew up with my mom reading them, and I always wanted to seem more grown up and mature by picking up "grown up" books and pretending that I could read and understand them. Confession: I've always wanted to read a Danielle Steel novel. ![]()
