This book is about four sister who decide to move in together for a year after a horrible family tragedy. It covers a year in their lives as they struggle to regain the lives they had previously.My grandmother picked this book out for our book club. I had read Danielle Steel a long time ago and had, admittedly enjoyed the book I had read, so while I wasn't looking forward to this, I was expecting much, much better. At the very least I expected to like the characters being the eldest of four girl...

Ah, what it must be like to live in Danielle Steel's world - where are the main characters are beautiful, perfect, and happy. And if you forget, you'll be reminded of it several times. My favorite part of this book is when, after a family tragedy, the family doctor gives one of the sisters a bottle of Valium to distribute at her pleasure. Hello! Isn't that illegal? What if she then subsequently sold them, was caught, and then hauled off to jail? Who would be responsible - the sister or the docto...

Sisters by Danielle Steel was actually recommended to me by my mom. She thought this book would be enjoyable for me and she was right! I gave this 4 stars because while reading this book there was many times when tears actually started to fill my eyes. This is the story of 4 sisters, all completely different from each other but extremely close with one another. Their mother and one of the middle sisters, Annie, get into a horrible car accident. Their mother unfortunately does not make it, howeve...

The first Danielle Steel book I've read since my late teens/early twenties and I truly enjoyed this book. I'm one of four sister's so this book really drew me in. The closeness of these sister's makes it a very sweet book to read even though it has plenty of tragic events. Four sister's on their own paths in life each successful in their career choices return to their hometown to celebrate the Fourth of July just like they do every year. Tragedy strikes and turns their lives upside down. This cl...

The reader can almost predict what they will read when you choose a Danielle Steel book. Sisters is about the relationship of four sisters who overcome tremendous loss. The reader knows all will evolve into a happy ever after ending. I did like how the author wove the story together to make it realistic. I also liked the sisters and their bond. 4 stars for this easy, summer read.

I am not a huge Danielle Steel fan but this book's title, "Sisters" and blurb on the back caught my eye (I am one of three girls so ya, I have sisters). Interestingly enough, I didn't completely hate it. It had the makings of a good story. However, there were some serious turnoffs about it. The major one being the author's characters are almost, in a sense, overcooked. For me, I prefer to have the characters remain a bit pink so they retain some flavor! I, also like to develop my own opinion of

I love the way the book opens for you. There are four sisters in the book and the first four chapters are dedicated to introducing you to them and their current lives. Sabrina(a successful lawyer in Manhattan), Tammy (a successful t.v. producer in Hollywood) , Annie (an aspiring artist living in Florence, Italy), and Candy (a globe-hopping supermodel). Their family ties are very strong and always drop their own lives to celebrate family holidays together with their parents in Conneticut. They al...

It's sad when you build up such high expectations for something and then come to the reality that no, you set the bar far, far too high, this doesn't even come close to meeting those expectations.That's how I felt about this book.I have never read anything by Danielle Steel before, and I highly doubt I will read anything by her again after this. Though to be fair, this was the first and only time I had ever been interested in pursuing a book of hers. I liked the premise of Sisters, it sounded li...

First of all did anybody else notice all the errors in this book? There were so many contradictions which irritate me to the core! First she says tammy's hair is red like her mothers only curly, then when the sisters are dividing up their mother's clothes Annie puts on a cashmere sweater and looks so beautiful, of course, and just like her mother who "has the same color hair", yet Annies hair is a chestnut. Then when she is describing Tammue's home in the beginning she says that tammy is just to...

My kid bought me this book for Valentines Day. Since he's five, we won't really judge him on his lack of literary tastes. Yet. Give him a few years.Sentimentally, I read it. And then I hated it. Her writing seems to be aimed at the barely literate. She uses small words. Short sentences and repeats things over and over. Then again. And again, just to make sure the point was made.This book. It made me feel less intelligent, just for having read it.

Now I’m getting to ones I remember. Love reading about towns near New York, and the (unimportant but interesting to me) things like a brownstone. Family dynamics, and possibly sisters, because I don’t have any, I do love to read about. Thos was a sweet story, wholesome and without stress. DS has the knack of quick and easy observation mixed with plain and simple story telling. Admittedly in much of her writing there is forced and unnecessary ‘telling’ and excessive repetition, but her work is a

A good story about four sisters whose lives vastly change in a matter of one day. I loved that Steel built upon how different the sisters were from each other and developed a story about how they come together regardless of the differences. Had enough drama to weave some intensity but overall it’s the emotions of this read that readers will grip. Really good book.

Four sisters with various careers, bind together when a disaster hits their family.An easy read, I found it entertaining, inspiring in some cases , sad, happy…… all the range of emotions.

If there was a rating lower than one star, I would give it to this. It was not written well at all, breaking every rule of writing--and not in a good way. I could not even finish it, though I tried a hundred pages worth. I do not recommend this at all, to anyone, and the only thing I learned from it is that if this could get published, then I could.
