I LOVED this book. How the author got into the heads of the three siblings was remarkable. Each sibling read like a real person, and the birth order "rules" certainly came into play. I saw a bit of myself in each girl, and rooted for the success of the girls throughout. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough! Ms. Brown's writing is strong, poetic, unexpectedly descriptive, and sounds all of the right notes. My only criticism is that she said "padded" (as in padded down the hall, padded into the kitchen) eight times, per my count. It's a worn out phrase that ALL writers should avoid, for now and forevermore. Otherwise, this was beautifully written and a wonderful read.
