I really enjoyed The Faraday Girls. It was current, well written and a good story. The interaction between the sisters, father and niece was very believable - every family deals with issues. I might have changed one aspect of the ending for my own liking - but the author wrapped up all the parts of the story nicely. I now have all Monica McInerney's earlier books on my Wish List - a sure sign of how much I liked this book.

This an excellent, well-written novel about family developing, growing and the secrets they keep. I thoroughly enjoyed this book - while it was over 500 pages I never tired of it. The characters were well developed and the storyline flowed. I recommend this book. Carol

I really loved this book and am looking forward to reading more by this author. This was the first book of hers that I've read. It was very interesting to read the family dynamics of the sister, father and niece and where each of their lifes take them. I couldn't put it down and looked forward to reading it every evening!

I have read almost all of this author's books. I really like her themes. This book is one about sisters. It's a book that shows that even though you have known someone for all of your life you don't necessarily know everything about them. Also if your a fan of Maeve Binchy this is an author whose books you will probably like.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It had an interesting premise and lively and strong characters. The ending took me by surprise... I would have expected something different... but, in the end I was quite satisfied. It made me giggle, as well as tear up. I think she is a wonderful writer and I will continue to look out for her books!
Light, easy read. Nothing terribly memorable about this book, but a nice beach/vacation read.
