Book Description

4 Aug 2011

There's more than one way of being a modern woman, not that the Devlin sisters would admit it ...

Julie used to be the easy-going sister. But now she's a mother of four boys under five, her marriage is under strain and she is struggling to keep sane. She needs support, but her sisters don't understand. After all, their lives are perfect.

Lawyer Louise has always been top of her game, with little time for family and even less for romance. But with a drunken mistake threatening everything she's worked for, she may need to accept that she needs help to keep going.

Gorgeous Sophie got everything she ever wanted: a loving husband, a beautiful, well-behaved daughter and a designer lifestyle. Her sisters consider her spoiled and shallow but she doesn't care - that's until her life is turned upside-down and she realises they may be right. Not that she's going to let them know the trouble she's in.

The Devlin sisters think they have little in common. They might just be in for some big surprises ...

Review

Marian Keyes has for years been the undisputed queen ... Sinéad Moriarty is now a worthy competitor (Sunday Independent )

Makes you really care ... plenty of laughts and more than a bit of substance (Irish Mail on Sunday )

This warm touching book is truly bittersweet - you will laugh and cry (My Weekly )

5.0 out of 5 stars Me and My fantastic book! 8 Aug 2011
By Chloe S "Chick Lit Chloe" TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
The Devlin family are the main focus of this book, and certainly have an interesting tale to tell! There are 3 sisters, Sophie, Louise and Julie, and while each of them seems happy with their lives, behind closed doors it's a different story altogether. Sophie, the youngest daughter, is a bit spoilt and is pushing that onto her young daughter as well, something her sisters resent. Louise is a successful lawyer living in London but she's hiding her own secret that threatens to blow her family apart. Finally, Julie is the mother of 4 boys, 3 of them being triplets and is falling apart with the pressure of it all. However, the sisters don't share their woes with each other but when all their lives begin to unravel, they turn to each other like never before.

I loved the family element of this book, and how the three women's stories all wrap around each other throughout the novel. Each of the chapters follows one of the women, but there isn't a pattern to it and I liked this because you didn't know where the story was going next. As it progresses, the sisters all appear in others stories more and more, and you can see how the importance of family being around is becoming more and more relevant. Moriarty deals with some pretty relevant issues in the book too - from bankruptcy to depression, affairs and single motherhood, and she deals with them all perfectly. Clearly she has done her research as it reads very well, and you really feel for the Devlin sisters as you are reading, having to deal with these horrible things all at once.

I found this book very readable, and was always reluctant to put it down. Things unfold at a good pace, not being rushed or happening too slowly, but at a believable pace and I liked this very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sisters 11 Sep 2011
Format:Paperback
Being one of three sisters the title really appealed to me. I also like irish authors i find their sense of humour amusing. The outlay of the book was good with nice black print.

I enjoyed the story very much and found myself relating to each one of the sisters in some way. Also I found myself reading this book when I should have been doing much more mundane things like housework.

I also ordered another Sinead Moriarty book which I am also enjoying.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable 27 Jun 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I found this book enjoyable, not as exciting as some of the other titles written by this author. It tells the story of pretty normal family life in the suburbs of Ireland and London.

5.0 out of 5 stars For any one who has a sister 26 April 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
Having two sisters myself I related to the complexity that a close family bond brings. The characters are great and the girls younger brother Gavin was definitely the younger sibling who got away with being pampered. It's a fab read and you really get caught up in the drama as it plays out.
