Download or read book Sisters written by Alice Lieu and published by Workman Publishing Company. This book was released on 2021-07-20 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tell your sister how you really feel! A sister is… A sidekick. An accomplice. A sometime nemesis. And your teammate for life, there to give you peace of mind and believe in you unconditionally (even when you don’t). Sisters: Better Together is the perfect tribute one sister can give to another to say how much she appreciates her. A gift of humor, camaraderie, and love, Sisters is written (of course!) by a sister duo, Alice and Doris Lieu, who bring all of the bright, bold artwork, funny and engaging text, and attitude of their ILOOTPAPERIE paper products to the idea of sisterhood. And they come at it from all different directions, from Sister Movies We Love, to Famous Sisters, to Things Only a Sister Can Know, to quotes: “For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather.” —Christina Rossetti
Download or read book Sisters written by Daisy Johnson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR “[A] skillfully crafted gothic mystery . . . Johnson pulls off a great feat in this book.” —Financial Times “It reminded me, in its general refusal to play nice, of early Ian McEwan.” —The New York Times Book Review “Johnson crafts an aching thriller about the dangers of loving too intensely.” —Time From a Booker Prize finalist and international literary star: a blazing portrait of one darkly riveting sibling relationship, from the inside out. “One of her generation’s most intriguing authors” (Entertainment Weekly), Daisy Johnson is the youngest writer to have been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. Now she returns with Sisters, a haunting story about two sisters caught in a powerful emotional web and wrestling to understand where one ends and the other begins. Born just ten months apart, July and September are thick as thieves, never needing anyone but each other. Now, following a case of school bullying, the teens have moved away with their single mother to a long-abandoned family home near the shore. In their new, isolated life, July finds that the deep bond she has always shared with September is shifting in ways she cannot entirely understand. A creeping sense of dread and unease descends inside the house. Meanwhile, outside, the sisters push boundaries of behavior—until a series of shocking encounters tests the limits of their shared experience, and forces shocking revelations about the girls’ past and future. Written with radically inventive language and imagery by an author whose work has been described as “entrancing” (The New Yorker), “a force of nature” (The New York Times Book Review), and “weird and wild and wonderfully unsettling” (Celeste Ng), Sisters is a one-two punch of wild fury and heartache—a taut, powerful, and deeply moving account of sibling love and what happens when two sisters must face each other’s darkest impulses.

Download or read book Band of Sisters written by Lauren Willig and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A crackling portrayal of everyday American heroines…A triumph." — Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Lions of Fifth Avenue A group of young women from Smith College risk their lives in France at the height of World War I in this sweeping novel based on a true story—a skillful blend of Call the Midwife and The Alice Network—from New York Times bestselling author Lauren Willig. A scholarship girl from Brooklyn, Kate Moran thought she found a place among Smith’s Mayflower descendants, only to have her illusions dashed the summer after graduation. When charismatic alumna Betsy Rutherford delivers a rousing speech at the Smith College Club in April of 1917, looking for volunteers to help French civilians decimated by the German war machine, Kate is too busy earning her living to even think of taking up the call. But when her former best friend Emmeline Van Alden reaches out and begs her to take the place of a girl who had to drop out, Kate reluctantly agrees to join the new Smith College Relief Unit. Four months later, Kate and seventeen other Smithies, including two trailblazing female doctors, set sail for France. The volunteers are armed with money, supplies, and good intentions—all of which immediately go astray. The chateau that was to be their headquarters is a half-burnt ruin. The villagers they meet are in desperate straits: women and children huddling in damp cellars, their crops destroyed and their wells poisoned. Despite constant shelling from the Germans, French bureaucracy, and the threat of being ousted by the British army, the Smith volunteers bring welcome aid—and hope—to the region. But can they survive their own differences? As they cope with the hardships and terrors of the war, Kate and her colleagues find themselves navigating old rivalries and new betrayals which threaten the very existence of the Unit. With the Germans threatening to break through the lines, can the Smith Unit pull together and be truly a band of sisters?

Book Synopsis Invisible Sisters by : Jessica Handler
Download or read book Invisible Sisters written by Jessica Handler and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of The Magnetic Girl delivers “an elegy for her dead sisters . . . a heartfelt, painful family saga, skillfully told by a survivor” (Kirkus Reviews). When Jessica Handler was eight years old, her younger sister Susie was diagnosed with leukemia. To any family, the diagnosis would have been upending, but to the Handlers, whose youngest daughter, Sarah, had been born with a rare, fatal blood disorder, it was an unimaginable verdict. Struck by the unlikelihood of siblings sick with diametrically opposed illnesses, the medical community labeled the Handlers’ situation a bizarre coincidence. By the time she was nine years old, Jessica had begun to introduce herself as the “well sibling.” Deeply moving and exquisitely written, Invisible Sisters is an extraordinary story of coming of age as the odd one out—as the daughter of progressive Jewish parents who moved to the South to participate in the civil rights movement of the 1960s, as the healthy sister among sick, and eventually, as the only sister left standing. In a book that is as hard to forget as it is to put down, Handler captures the devastating effects of illness and death on a family and the triumphant account of one woman’s enduring journey to step out of the shadow of loss to find herself anew. “An unsentimental but deeply moving look at the ways in which loss––loss past and the loss that is still to come––can shape lives . . . a quiet, near-hypnotic tour de force.”—Michael Wex, New York Times bestselling author of Born to Kvetch “Both heartbreaking and hopeful.”—Ann Hood, bestselling author of The Book That Matters Most
Book Synopsis The Bird Sisters by : Rebecca Rasmussen
Download or read book The Bird Sisters written by Rebecca Rasmussen and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Spring Green, Wisconsin, spinster sisters Milly and Twiss have spent their lives listening to heartbeats and heartaches, nursing birds and the people who bring them back to health. Back in the summer of 1947, Milly and Twiss knew nothing about trying to mend what had been accidentally broken. Milly was known as a great beauty with emerald eyes and Twiss was a brazen wild child who never wore a dress or did what she was told. That was the summer their golf pro father had an accident that cost him both his swing and his charm, and their mother, the daughter of a wealthy jeweler, finally admitted that their hardscrabble lives wouldn't change. It was the summer their priest, Father Rice, announced that God didn't exist and ran off to Mexico, and a boy named Asa finally caught Milly's eye. Most unforgettably, it was also the summer their cousin Bett came down from a town called Deadwater and changed the course of their lives forever. Rebecca Rasmussen's masterful debut novel is full of hope and beauty, heartbreak and sacrifice, love and the power of sisterhood, offering wonderful surprises at every turn.
