The Bookish Island's Book Review:
When We Were Sisters by Beth Miller
Are there spoilers?
I don't really think so.

This is one of the books I read after the passing of Hurricane Maria here in Puerto Rico. With no water, electricity or internet I took to reading my books.
I decided to not do this for the books I've read on 2018. But it has been 4 months since Hurricane Maria. And I'm happy to announce that now we have water, and electricity.
Title - When We Were SistersBy - Beth Miller
Publication - May 1st, 2015 by Ebury Press
Genre - Humor, Fiction, Family, Woman's Fiction
A funny, poignant debut about female friendship and dysfunctional families
I never think of Laura as my stepsister, but that's what she is.
Once they were the best of friends, inseparable as only teenage girls can be. That is until Miffy’s Jewish father ran off with Laura’s Catholic mother and both of their families imploded—as well as Laura’s intense relationship with Miffy’s brother. 20 years later, they’re all about to meet again.

My Review:
I've had this book for years and never got to it. But I read it in a week or so and learned that I didn't get anything that was happening. Not only did the main character have a weirdness to her but she didn't get how weird she was being. She thought it was okay to break a solid marriage that her stepbrother had with his wife because they used to date before he was her stepbrother. Plus, her mother was crazy manipulative and when she was confronted she acted innocent which is even crazier. I just didn't get anything that was going on in this book. But I liked it. So I gave it 3 stars.
Started this book on November 1, 2018.
I finished reading this book on November 7, 2018.
