Description

“Moriarty’s first novel, written with wisdom, humor, and sincerity, is an honest look at sisters who have a bond stronger than anything life throws their way.” — Booklist

The funny, heartwarming, and completely charming first novel from Liane Moriarty, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Nine Perfect Strangers and Big Little Lies.    

Lyn, Cat, and Gemma Kettle, beautiful thirty-three-year-old triplets, seem to attract attention everywhere they go. Together, laughter, drama, and mayhem follow them, but apart, each is dealing with her own share of ups and downs.  

Lyn has organized her life into one big checklist, Cat has just learned a startling secret about her marriage, and Gemma, who bolts every time a relationship hits the six-month mark, holds out hope for lasting love. 

In this wise, witty, and hilarious novel, we follow the Kettle sisters through their tumultuous thirty-third year as they deal with sibling rivalry and secrets, revelations and relationships, unfaithful husbands and unthinkable decisions, and the fabulous, frustrating life of forever being part of a trio.

    Funny, light, fun. I always wished I was a twin or a triplet‼️‼️I am now totally convinced I should have been. This delightful book would be a fabulous beach read, summer cabin read, or winter chill read. Loved it. Hee books are all so unusual, interesting, and even mysterious.
  • An interesting book

    The story flowed well, but I found the characters a little unbelievable at times. But it kept me reading.

    I was bummed when I finished it! It’s a definite page turner and I couldn’t wait to see where the ladies went next. There were times I was irritated with what they were doing/saying/thinking but when do we ever love everything about someone? Never. It was funny, charming, heart wrenching and genuine. The characters seemed real and I loved the interaction between the main women and their crazy kooky family they love in spite of it all. I loved how at the end of each chapter was an excerpt from a stranger who’d seen the family doing something in public that touched their own lives. I thought this addition was witty and a wonderful idea.

    Good character development and a page turner for sure. Too much unsavory language for my taste but the characters were relatable in a quirky sort of way.

    The story follows 3 twin sisters through flashbacks and current realities as they experience life changing events. Loved how Moriarty made it really easy to connect to each sister. It starts with a major event but then ends in such a reassuring manner. This great for anyone who is needing a little pick me up

    There really isn’t anything to like about the book. The storyline, characters, and the back and forth in the book are annoying. If you have low expectations in loyalty, faithfulness, and trustworthiness, you may like this book. I expect more of the people in my circle so this book was not for me.
