The Sunshine Sisters by Jane Green
3.0

I think I’ve said before that I enjoy novels about Adult adults partly because it usually gets away from the YA tropes I’m used to and more because it reduces my anxiety about approaching the big 30 in five-ish years. Anyway! I really liked the characters in the book. Ronni, Nell, Meredith, and Lizzie are all very different from each other (though not so much with Ronni and Lizzie) and I enjoyed their different personalities and inner and outer lives being presented on the page. I loved the character development and the plot. I liked that Ronni recognizes she can’t change the past or how she screwed things up but she does what she can to make things better in the future. She wasn’t purified or whatever by bringing her daughters together but she is improved and her last acts were probably the best of her life.
