Critic Reviews

"Great fun from start to finish." (Jenny Colgan)

 

"There are only two words for Shari Low: utterly hilarious. I laughed like a drain." (Carmen Reid) 

"One of the funniest books I've ever read!" (Marisa Mackle)

genuinely enjoyable read

I was pleasantly surprised by this lovely story. I picked it because I adore the narrator, but thought it might be a bit of fluffy chick-lit. Instead, I was treated to a heart-warming, fully fleshed out story about 4 heart-breakingly real sisters.

Enjoyable .. glad I persisted

This is a good story about 4 sisters but I did find it hard to keep track of who was who. Luckily it didn't deter from the story too much.

DNF

Couldn’t get beyond the first few chapters. If this is what having sisters is like I am glad I don’t have any. And not a single one of the characters in the entire story is a decent person worthy of being called a friend. I rarely don’t make it to the end of a book. After a few chapters it was way to much to take.

Fun!

I could listen to Cathleen McCarron all day! This is a fun and entertaining book that was hard to put down.

Mom5k

Liked the story and how it came together wish authors would have to swear so much.

4 Sisters

I love this book! The narrator did a great job and I was riveted until the end! Thank you!!

Funny heart weatmomg

loved it and loved the narrator. Heart warming story of the unbreakable bonds of 4 very different sisters and their family dynamics

Can’t say enough …

This book was outstanding! Loved everything about the story of the four sisters. And the narrator is brilliant.

story about four sisters

a story about four sisters getting to know each other and learning to love and appreciate each other more. I did have to power through the first half of the book thinking how awful they are to each other but I realize now that it had to be that way, for the ending to be more meaningful, for the point to Really hit home.

Hard to follow at times

The story was good but there were a lot of characters and it took quite a while to sort it all out.

enjoyable story

loved the twists and turns of the story.

I just couldn't get into the readers voice. sorry. had to keep starting over or going back.

Fun light hearted read

I loved this book. It took me a while to get all the characters lined up after the intro which I listened to twice. However I really liked the structure Shari used to tell the story from the each of the 4 sisters points of view. The story really highlighted how important it is for people to communicate clearly. It was also a lovely up beat love story which illustrated how people can change their lives for the better.

Intriguing

Really enjoyed the personalities within the family and how the puzzle unravelled. hooked the reader in.

Good and frustrating

Really enjoyed the storyline to this story, but it took a lot of concentration to keep up with the characters stories. There were a lot of characters and half of the time I hadn't forgotten their back stories.

It was read well, apart the Scottish accent, the other accents. i.e. French and American weren't great.

I found it trick to keep listening.

I listened for 2 hours but found it all very confusing. Too many different parts of the story with different characters and the narrator was hard to follow too.

Really Enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book. lots of twists & turns. Plenty of laughs & a few tears.
Just a story of real life.
I would definitely recommend it.

A good summer read

I finished this book very quickly because I was hooked!
The only downside was differentiating between the character speaking was quite tricky.

Excellent!

Best book I've listened to in ages! I was completely enthralled from the first chapter. The whole story is one big who dunnit with plenty of laughs but with some poignant, real moments too. Each character is well developed and not without flaws and with each chapter you can see their perspective and understand their side of things. It's a story of humour, sisterhood and intrigue. It's so refreshing to read a book that I really wasn't sure of the outcome, kept me guessing until the end.

I really enjoyed the narrator too, the story was made even wittier with her glaswegian lilt. I will certainly be reading more from Shari Low!

Must listen

A beautifully constructed tale of life, love, family and friends. Full of humour, emotion and surprise.

Funny and Heartfelt

This story didn't go where I was expecting and I'm so glad. Four sisters go through the same thing and handle it completely differently. Hilarious and emotional consequences ensue. Thoroughly enjoyed this story.
