I could read 500 more pages of the Blue sisters. Mellors writing is captivating and intoxicating. I felt like watching a movie with every chapter. Uniquely dynamic sisters, no storyline blended into the other like some multi-narrator stories do for me. This is a book I wish I could read for the first time again
