Nowhere near as good as "How to say Goodbye in Robot" but still enjoyable. I didn't connect with the characters and there just wasn't enough to the story to hold my attention. ( ) About: The Sullivan family has done something to offend their Grandmother. If they don't figure it out soon, then their grandmother will disown them. And the family needs to keep their inheritance to "survive". Three of the Sullivan sisters decide to write out letters of apologies to their grandmother hoping to help her forgive them for the things they have done. Review: Family is a big theme in this book. While they do argue you can tell how much the sisters truly love each other. Most of the time when they're going through hard times they talk to one another. Also this book has an interesting story line. I enjoyed reading each of their stories and getting to know each of their characters better. From the oldest most sensible Norrie, to the rebellious, wild, Jane, to the youngest Sassy, who isn't Sassy at all, but is quiet and a little "out there" sometimes ( she think's she's immortal?). Each of the characters were unique and interesting to learn more about. The Bad: I didn't even think about this till now that I'm reviewing this story. But why is the inheritance so important.....I mean really, are they going to be out on the streets if they lose it? Does their father or mother not have a job. Sure they'd have to change their life styles a bit and it wouldn't be as extravigant but at the same time, they seem kind of shallow worrying about losing all the money. They don't even seem worried that their Grandmother could be dying! As a note for the younger readers or parents of them, this books is full language. At least in Norrie's and Jane's story. Especially Jane's story. Sassy's is the only one with no( or at least if so only like 1) bad words. I don't know......I give this book 2 and half stars because of this. As mentioned above the character's aren't always that likable. And who calls their Dad, Daddyo or their Grandmother, The Almighty. Also the ending of this book is pretty predictable. I couldn't see it 1 hundred percent but I could see something like that was coming at the end. Finally the endings seem uncomplete to Norrie and Sassy's stories....... while I can't go into details without ruining it for you I will say that they needed more closure for me. Will the Sullivan family re inherit their inheritance? What secrets are the Sullivan Sisters holding? Will their Grandmother and the ones they love ever forgive or understand them? Read "Confessions of the Sullivan Sisters" to find out. I don't usually read YA books, but this one sounded so entertaining. It didn't disappoint. Each of the three sections is written from the perspective of a different sister. But it's not until the second section that connections start coming together and things start really making sense. I finally found myself racing through the pages, eager to find out all the secrets and which one would set the family free from its dire fate. I won my copy through First Reads. A quick, fun read with three very different voices for the three narrators. I really liked the Rashoman style view of events where the three sisters' stories all overlapped. I found the tone to be a little confusing though - at times this seemed like the lightest of frolics and at other times it seemed to be aiming for more gravity. I also really didn't like the dropped Shea bit - Shea texts Norrie and we never find out what that was about? I expected it to be revealed in one of the next two stories, but it was just left there hanging. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
