Sisters by Kathleen Thompson Norris

3.0

I really am surprised at myself that I finished reading this book. This is not the type of book I would normally read at all. I mostly started reading it because it was labeled "Classic" so I decided to check it out. It says it was first published in 2004 on goodreads and amazon doesn't say anything at all but it is obviously much, much older. I finally found out it was published in 1919. This book reads like a TV soap opera/drama and deals with the subject of divorce which was still considered taboo by many at the time. There is some womanizing talk by some and a touch of racism but not too much. It also hits on some other controversial topics but I don't want to spoil the book. I actually think the first part of the book was very dull. I think the only reason I made it through that was because of the beautiful descriptions of the area which made me wish to be there. If you like historical romance and drama tv you would probably like this a lot more than I did.
