Sisters Review
I enjoyed this book very much as it kept me wondering until the end. It is a good character study that I agree makes you think for a while after you have finished reading it. I was disappointed in all of the characters, save two: Alix and the father. But those two more savory characters are a good contrast to the rest of the characters. If I could sum up this story in short, I would say it is less a romance novel than a bird's-eye view of the different personalities of people you could meet in your own life and the cause and effect they have upon each other depending on their behavior; like freight trains on one end, and the silent tracks they slide over, on the other. Knowing this about the characters is the reason why I also had to think more about Alix and the effect she had on the rest of them towards the end of the novel. Was the outcome of her actions more well thought out than what they originally appeared on the surface? You read it and decide.
Sisters Overview
"Why, everyone has some alternative," Cherry pleaded. "It can't be that marriage is the only--the only irrevocable thing! If you had a partner that you couldn't go on with, you could come to SOME agreement! You could make a sacrifice, but somehow you could end the association! Peter," she said, earnestly, "when I think of marketing again--six chops and soup-meat and butter and baking powder--I feel sick! When I think of unpacking the things I've washed and dusted for five years--the glass berry bowl that somebody gave us, and the eleven silver tea-spoons--I can't bear it!"

The Perfect Free Book! - -
This book shows that not the prettist get everything. It shows people are different and that people love who you are and not what you want to be! I absoulotly loved reading this great free romance. I hope all readers who read Sisters by Kathleen Thompson Norris enjoy this book like I did.
Well worth reading this one - Kristie Leigh Maguire - Nevada
It took me a while to get into this book because of the flowery writing style of yesteryear but I'm glad I kept on with it. After finally getting into the style of writing I was surprised at how this book hooked me and kept me reading it. The ending was not how I wanted this book to turn out though. However Sisters is well worth the download. I recommend it.

The story line was enough to keep you wadding through the book. It got a bit boring because you could see the ending coming about half-way through the text.
