Fiction. Literature. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:

From Sara Shepard, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Little Liars, comes The Heiressesâ??a novel about the Saybrooks, a diamond family blessed with beauty and fortune yet plagued by a string of tragic and mysterious deaths.

The only thing more flawless than a Saybrook's solitaire is the family behind the diamond empire. Beauties, entrepreneurs, debutantes, and mavens, the Saybrooks are the epitome of high society. Anyone would kill to be one of them. But be careful what you wish for, because if you were a Saybrook, you'd be haunted by secrets and plagued by a dark streak of luck.

Tragedy strikes the prominent family yet again on a beautiful morning in May when thirty-four-year-old Poppy, the most remarkable Saybrook of them all, flings herself from the window of her office. Everyone is shocked that someone so perfect would end her own lifeâ??until her cousins receive an ominous warning: One heiress down, four to go.

Was it suicide . . . or murder? And who will be next: Aster, the beautiful but reckless girl who's never worked a day in her lifeâ??and who's covering up her father's darkest secret? Her older sister, Corrine, whose meticulously planned future is about to come crashing down around her? Perhaps it will be Natasha, the black sheep of the family who suddenly disinherited herself five years ago. Or maybe the perpetually single Rowan, who had the most to gain from her cousin's death.

A gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller about heiresses who must uncover a dark truth about their family before they lose the only thing money can't buy: their li… (altro)

The Heiresses/Sara Shepard Complex in a very simple manner, this book was a fun and easy-to-read piece of chick-lit-fic.
 
If you've read anything by Sara Shepard, you can probably guess if you'll enjoy this or not. The characters are adults, but still pretty, rich, and somewhat talented. Someone or something--in this case, the curse--is out to off them, and we get to read about them as they interact with a lot of pressure over their heads as they try and solve the mysteries.
 
What I found most disappointing about this book was how ultimately the mysteries were solved through other people telling the main characters what happened instead of them really figuring it out themselves. They come up with a lot of hypotheses, as typical of Shepard's characters, but I feel like this almost makes them more juvenile. It would be more fun if the answer to the mystery had been something we could have solved ourselves.
 
Despite this, I really enjoyed turning off my brain and reading this book. It's fun to imagine the scenarios they're going through and although I couldn't easily relate to many of the characters, I felt some of their relationships really strongly.
 
Though no characters particularly drew me in, I did enjoy reading this book and recommend it for a light read. ( )

Another Sara Shepard series with a twist, these are heiresses in NYC. It's similar to all her series but, in a weird brain-candy way, I love her books. Are the Pullitzer Prize winners, no. But they are good, quick reads and always have a fun and not-so-predictable twist. This one is no exception. The characters are older than her usual high school girls but that gives them more free reign to do crazier things! I'm looking forward to the next one for sure! ( )

This book has too many characters. Five female cousins and their parents, spouses, children and siblings. At times the book was engaging but other times, I wanted to hit my head against the wall. It’s 10 hours of listening. Take that into consideration. The end is left open so that the author can make a sequel and most likely a series on Netflix. ( )

No puedo resistirme con estos libros, los inhalo cual cocaína

Original de: El Blog del Gato - El Extraño Gato del Cuento

Me encanta Sara Shepard, sus libros no serán la maravilla, pero cada vez que empiezo uno de sus libros los devoró. Esta vez trae los misterios de una bella familia multimillonaria, The Heiresses tiene todo eso que amas de un libro de esta autora, una cantidad infinita de personajes, giros de trama telenovelesco y, mucho, mucho drama.

Un placer siniestro mío es ver los desastres de los millonarios en E! y leerlo ahora, para mí fue el epítome de mi chismosería. Si ya has leído a Sara Shepard antes y te gusta, amarás este libro, que supuestamente es una serie, pero hasta no dicen nada de cuándo la continuación que la NECESITO, ya saben cómo es esta escritora, cliffhangers siempre.
