The Weird Sisters Audiobook

" Nice enough story of three sisters, their trials and tribulations and finally figuring out what makes them happy. Slow read. Did not care for the narration as it really wasn't narrated by any one person. Apparently it was narrated by the sisters, as a whole. Never got used to it. "

" Quick read about 3 sisters, two of whom come home to their Shakespearian quoting dad and mom dealing with breast cancer,after their individual "perceived" failures and end up finding themselves again. This book was given to me by a patient and I read it in 3 days. I would recommend it as an easy read, but not particularly challenging one. "

" eccentric is the word. and truthful. i found some of myself in here. from books all about the house and taking one wherever you go, but other truths too. more private ones. this book will definitely count amongst my favourites. and one to keep on my shelf to read again and again. "

" Really liked this book. It was well written and engaging. Highly recommend it! "

" It took me a long time to complete reading this book because of how busy I have been. Every time I picked it up though, I was instantly transported there. The story was well written and I loved the way the characters were described/developed. They all seemed like people I might meet in real life. Having a sister, every page of this book had something that resonated with me. The cover says it all "See, we love each other. We just don't like each other very much." "

" I liked the characters and the premise, but I kept waiting for a more interesting storyline to develop. "

" i liked this book and the sisters very enjoyalbe "

" Quite an interesting book with a unique style. "

" uhhhhm, kinda liked it but kinda annoyed by the trivial, unenlightened problems they faced, especially with men. just found i didn't care about them all that much..... "

" Easy read but not much depth. "

" The voice this book was written in was an intersting literary device; I must say this was a first for me. The Weird Sisters was a compelling story and made me wish I had paid better attention to the little Shakespeare I was exposed to in high school and college as I missed many of the references. "

" I tried to like this book, I really did. It never happened. The narrative style was just too absurd and distracted me from the story so much that I gave up after 5 chapters. "

" I found the narrators voice oddly addicting and powerful. Loved the references to Shakespeare.. and loved the insights into sibling life, family life, and introspection. A few swear words, no gratuitous sex, one drug scene. (marijuana.) "

" Enjoyed this but was very frustrated by the three sisters. They are all very smart but can't seem to get on with their lives. "

" Loved it! Any book in which the works of Shakespeare are prominent has to be good! "

" Really enjoyed this book! Intelligent thought provoking, funny and i loved the characters and their love of reading. "

" A sweet story about the roles we all take on in families and what home really means. "

" I really appreciated the way the author developed her characters and at first not very likealbe characters became characters with depth and humanity. While I am not well-read in shakespeare, I found the quotes entertaining and generally well-suited to the story. A worthy read "

" I kind of feel the author rushed the ending. The rest of the book wove in between each sisters point of view and into their problems but it ended a little too abruptly in my opinion. "

" I made it 25 pages. I didn't hate it, but it absolutely did not hold my interest. I disliked the main characters, and it took too long for the plot to go anywhere (in fact I'm not sure I know what the plot actually was). "

" Entertaining. Easy read. Nonrealistic with perfect endings. Shakespearean references were annoying. "

" I loved this book. Well written, great characters...one of those books that touches you deeply. I don't have any sisters, but this seems so real that I could understand how each woman evolved in relationship with the others. "

" Great story of modern day sisters with personalities that are similar to their namesake Shakespearean heroines. "

" I could not get into this book. The language was trite and I was not drawn in by the story. "

" The author was contradictory at times, and could be quite wordy, by overall a good read. "

" Nicely done, but oddly pat at the end. Although perhaps it was meant to be a sort of Shakespearean comedy in which "All's Well That Ends Well." Author took some interesting risks in the novel, like using "we" and "us." I'd love to hear other readers' thoughts. "

" Charming. The plural first person narration bothered me at first, but by the end I really liked it. This is not literary fiction, which was perfect for me after The Tiger's Wife. It's light and pleasant and fun. "

" should be called the "self-absorbed sisters" "

" This book will appeal to anyone who loves the Bard...and to anyone who loves the story of the eternal struggle among sisters. Really lovely, funny, sensitive and entertaining book. "

" Not enough sisters to coincide with my siblings! But a few similarities. "

" I just couldn't get into it. If you like Shakespeare and old English literature you might like it more. "

" It grew on me, but still not one of my favorite things I have read in a while. I didn't love the plural 1st person voice as much as others. But I loved the shimmery cover paper! Very fancy. "

" I did not like any of the characters and I hated the narrative "WE". "

" Ugh. So cloying and annoying and the Shakespeare quotes are so show-offy. "
