#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

No one knows you like your sister. She can make you laugh or break your heart with a single word. And no one writes novels like Kristin Hannah, an author who vividly explores the intricate bonds of family and, as Tami Hoag said “touches the deepest, most tender corners of our heart.” Now, in her rich, captivating new book, she creates an indelible portrait of two women, once lost to each other, about to come together in a time of exquisite joy and almost unbearable sadness. Sisters by blood, strangers by choice, each stands at a crossroads, ready to confront the betrayals of the past....

BETWEEN SISTERS

Meghann Dontess is a woman haunted by heartbreak. Twenty-five years ago she was forced to make a terrible choice, one that cost her everything, including the love of her sister, Claire. Now, Meghann is a hotshot divorce attorney who doesn’t believe in intimacy - until she meets the one man who can change her mind.

Claire Cavenaugh has fallen in love for the first time in her life. As her wedding day approaches, she prepares to face her harsh, judgmental older sister and their self-absorbed mother. It is the first time they have been together in more than two decades. Over the course of a hot Pacific Northwest summer, these three women who believe they have nothing in common will try to become what they never were: a family.

Tender, funny, bittersweet, and wonderfully moving, Between Sisters celebrates the joys and heartaches that can only be shared by sisters, the mistakes made in the name of love and the healing power of new beginnings - all beautifully told by acclaimed author Kristin Hannah.

Another epic story from Kristin Hannah

This is the 3rd book I've read by KH in succession. This book like The Nightingale and The Women is enthralling. The characters come to life through KH's empathic understanding of human suffering , self-punishment and shame.

KH has a wonderful way of painting pictures with words of people, places and situations that draw you in.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

Loving story

This was a very touching book which only Kristin Hannah can write.
The narration was horrible at times. Way too much at times when trying to give a character a certain well … character.

Took a while to get into, then fabulous!

It took me a while to get into this story but once the characters began to evolve, it was hard to put down. Loved it.

A bit disappointing

I usually really enjoy Kristin Hannah books and recently particularly loved The Women, but this one wasn't up to her usual standard. Perhaps it would have been better to have read a hard copy, as the narrator's voice was particularly irritating. Why she had to make the child sound so ridiculously babyish is hard to understand. I think she was trying too hard to make different voices for the characters and it came across as very false.
The story itself was a bit mundane and predictable, not bad enough to stop listening and get a credit refund, but not gripping in any way.

Another great listen from Kristin Hannah

The narrator had a good range of voice characters- apart from Ali.
I really enjoyed the book although similar threads to her other novels.

Disappointing

Struggled to finish this book and am normally a Kristin Hannah fan. Overly sentimental and not much plot.
