For My Daughters
Estranged sisters Caroline, Annette, and Leah St. Clair have spent their lives trying to escape the legacy of their wealthy, aloof, social-climbing mother, Virginia -- each losing a certain part of herself in the process. Now, on the eve of her seventieth birthday, Virginia has asked them all to help her get settled into her magnificent new estate on the rocky coast of Maine, a request each sister reluctantly agrees to, thinking it may be her mother's last.
But it is Virginia who has something to give to the daughters she neglected in childhood. For amid the glories of a New England summer, three sisters will finally learn the answers to the questions that have troubled them for years . . . and new truths that will stay with them forever.
I would have to rate this book as just average. If you are looking for a quick read, but not something with a lot of substance, this would be a good choice. It seemed to be a bit unbelievable at times and I thought the story also seemed a bit rushed...normally I really enjoy this author, but not so much this time.
I am in a major reading slump. This one made me feel like the only way to get through was to skim to the end.
Mother and daughtersThis was a good, easy read. It would b a good beach book or a rainy day book cuddled under a cozy blanket.
Good book, easy read and it kept my interest.
Perfectly predicable yet quite enjoyable.
I've read this book again and again and every time I fall in love with Delinsky's characters. This is a great book to get lost in on vacation, curled up near a warm fire in the middle of winter or just lost in your room. You can't help but find something in each of the sister's you identify with or someone in your life who reminds you of them. An easy read, but a good one nonetheless.
