Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. excellent writing borrowed from Claudia ( ) Won ARC from Firstreads. Great book about two sisters. The time switches back and forth between modern times and 1947. Specifically one day in the present and the summer of 1947 when Milly and Twiss received a visit from their cousin Bett and their lives were forever changed. The two girls and their very different reactions to situations reminded me a lot of myself and my sister. I am like Milly, retreating from conflict by baking/cooking/reading, while my sister is much more like Twiss who goes to the barn and hammers nails into boards to deal with various situations. I loved these sisters and will definitely keep an eye out for this author and her future works! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:In Spring Green, Wisconsin, spinster sisters Milly and Twiss have spent their lives listening to heartbeats and heartaches, nursing birds and the people who bring them back to health. Back in the summer of 1947, Milly and Twiss knew nothing about trying to mend what had been accidentally broken. Milly was known as a great beauty with emerald eyes and Twiss was a brazen wild child who never wore a dress or did what she was told. That was the summer their golf pro father had an accident that cost him both his swing and his charm, and their mother, the daughter of a wealthy jeweler, finally admitted that their hardscrabble lives wouldn't change. It was the summer their priest, Father Rice, announced that God didn't exist and ran off to Mexico, and a boy named Asa finally caught Milly's eye. Most unforgettably, it was also the summer their cousin Bett came down from a town called Deadwater and changed the course of their lives forever. Rebecca...
