I was bored.  I didn't care about any of the characters; and didn't appreciate that all of them had some sort of addiction (mostly drug) that were done on page.

Wir begleiten die Schwestern Avery, Lucky und Bonnie Blue.

Sie haben vor einem Jahr ihre Schwester Nicky auf Grund einer Überdosis verloren. Wir erleben den Trauerprozess und die erneute Annäherung der Schwestern. Sie finden einen neuen Weg für ihre Schwesternbeziehung ohne Nicky als aktiven, jedoch immer bleibenden Part. Auch den persönlichen Heilungsprozess von Sucht und Vernachlässigung in der Kindheit können wir verfolgen.

Es ist toll wie die Schwestern als Einzelpersonen und in ihrem Zusammenspiel lebendig werden und die gemeinsamen Herausforderungen zunehmend wieder zusammen bestreiten.

I enjoyed this and wanted to know what would happen. The  exploration of inter generational addiction issues was very realistic. I was rooting for all of the sisters  survival and happiness.
