A beautiful portrayal of sisterhood and the complexities of family life. 

It’s told from the pov of 3 sisters who are grieving the loss of their other sister as it comes to the one year anniversary of her death. 3 sisters who are in different stages of life & grief and trying to come to terms with life without their sister. It shows the good side of sisterhood and also the ugly parts. It also deals with endometriosis and how that can ruin lives along with addiction. 

I loved this from the very first paragraph. At times I did think it dragged on and it did take me a while to engage with the characters but once I was fully engaged into this book, i loved it. An absolutely heartbreaking, difficult, emotional but beautiful book about sisters, grief, family & addictions. 

The cheating trope & the mention of the isr*eli artist wasn’t needed though 

4.5⭐️
