When Willow Lake asks her daughters for help renovating the family home, each has a reason to hesitate about returning to Maplewood. For quiet and bookish Emmy going back to the town that ridiculed her fills her with dread. The youngest Noelle is perfectly comfortable in herself now, but once wanted to fit in so badly that she walked away from her first love. A first love who still lives in Maplewood. And outspoken Rae is painfully aware of how much the townspeople hurt her little sisters growing up. She didn’t protect them then, but there’s no way she’ll let history repeat itself. The sisters agree to go home and make the best of it. After all if they’ve changed over the years, it’s possible the townspeople have too.

‘My Sisters And Me’ is a fun and playful book that really makes for entertaining reading. It’s seen through the perspective of three sisters, Emmy, Noelle and Rae as they take on the hard task of returning home and sorting out all their childhood memories.

As they return to their old town, old memories are stirred up bringing up some happy feelings of nostalgia as they remember growing up and reconnecting with old friends. But for the sisters, who lived in the middle of the woods during the era of ‘The Blair Witch Project’, they were seen as weirdos with hippy parents. This led to years of abuse and ridicule and when the women returned home, thought that opinions would have changed. But it, seems that even though they have moved on and grown up, the town is still stuck in the past and have kept their opinions.

As well, as having to deal with the small minded townsfolk, the sisters have their own issues to deal with. As Emmy, the baby of the trio, is an intelligent young woman who dreams of one day going to space becomes awkward when her first, unknown love enters her life, whilst Noelle has embraced her sexuality and wants to repair old bridges and outspoken Rae wants to tell everyone what she really thinks of them.

An uplifting story about the strong bond of the sisterhood and putting old ghosts to rest, ‘My Sisters And Me’ is a witty and heartwarming story about love and friendship, that will have you giggling throughout at the funny characters and hilarious situations.
