True Colors
True Colors | Kristin Hannah
True Colors is New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah's most provocative, compelling, and heart-wrenching story yet. With the luminous writing and unforgettable characters that are her trademarks, she tells the story of three sisters whose once-solid world is broken apart by jealousy, betrayal, and the kind of passion that rarely comes along. The Grey sisters have always been close. After their mother's death, the girls banded together, becoming best friends. Their stern, disapproving father cares less about his children than about his reputation. To Henry Grey, appearances are everything, and years later, he still demands that his daughters reflect his standing in the community. Winona, the oldest, needs her father's approval most of all. An overweight bookworm who never felt at home on the sprawling horse ranch that has been in her family for three generations, she knows that she doesn't have the qualities her father values. But as the best lawyer in town, she's determined to someday find a way to prove her worth to him. Aurora, the middle sister, is the family peacemaker. She brokers every dispute and tries to keep them all happy, even as she hides her own secret pain. Vivi Ann is the undisputed star of the family. A stunningly beautiful dreamer with a heart as big as the ocean in front of her house, she is adored by all who know her. Everything comes easily for Vivi Ann, until a stranger comes to town. . . . In a matter of moments, everything will change. The Grey sisters will be pitted against one another in ways that none could have imagined. Loyalties will be tested and secrets revealed, and a terrible, shocking crime will shatter both their family and their beloved town. With breathtaking pace and penetrating emotional insight, True Colors is an unforgettable novel about sisters, rivalry, forgiveness, redemption---and ultimately, what it means to be a family.

I really enjoyed this book, especially toward the second half. I was a little concerned that it was going to be a hokey love story, which it was, but the beginning had me thinking it was closer to a Carolyn Brown story rather than a Kristen Hannah novel.

Not her best writing, but a unique story with lovable characters and a moving plot.

This seemed overly long to me and I did not like Winona‘s immaturity and selfishness. She redeemed herself in the end and I did like the ending. 3.5 ⭐️

While I usually absolutely love Kristin Hannah's books, this one while really beautiful, was relatively underwhelming.

Thank you, @shortsarahrose for the #litsylovesanimalswap box. The sticker made me LOL, and the monogrammed bone for Fred is absolutely adorable. I loved the animal themed wrapping paper. @DinoMom @ShelleyBooksie

shortsarahrose Aww! Fred looks so sweet with his bone! I had to get myself the same sticker because it is exactly what happens to me 😆 2y

The Grey sisters' mother died years ago and their father doesn't give them much attention. Winona needs her father's approval. Aurora is the peacemaker. ViviAnn is the star of the family but when she follows her heart, events will test the love and loyalties of the Grey sisters. A shocking crime will shatter their town and secrets will be revealed.

EadieB This is a novel about sisters, vengeance, jealousy, betrayal and what truly means to be a family. It is well paced with interesting characters. If you love stories about sisters and family, then you will enjoy this one. 2y

February books?! I think none of us has read the tagged Hannah book. Is Coben‘s The Innocent another one we haven‘t read? Also, The Dee Valley Killings and Torch? @Andrew65 @EadieB

EadieB Sounds good to me! 2y
Andrew65 I‘m up for that providing I can get hold of the Lin Anderson books. 2y

Half-way through. Picked this up because I LOVED The Nightingale. Can't decide what I think of True Colors, but it is definitely not as good as The Nightingale.

I was hoping to finish this book by the New Year, but I can not get into the story line. It is all over the place. I usually love Kristin Hannah, but this book isn‘t her best. I am on chapter 12. Does it get any better?

Kristin has done it again! In my opinion it was far better than The Great Alone but not QUITE as good as Night Road or Nightingale but definitely still worth the read. Amazing! One of the best authors at creating full rounded characters.

Nice, wholesome read about families and their misgivings and righting wrongs. Decent book, not a favourite. 3 star

I'm always unsure with books with ranches in them. In this one the ranch was very secondary but still an excellent book by Hannah. Wish there was a little more of the horses. But Hannah can do no wrong in my mind.

Perhaps the ending was a bit predictable, but her stories & characters tear my heart out so that I don't mind. Any book that makes me cry gets a thumbs up from me. It's after 1am local time, so I will regret this in a few hours, but once I saw the end in sight, I had to finish! #bookishproblems

TrishB I have just ordered a couple more of hers! 7y
mom2bugnbee @TrishB Did you finish Firefly Lane? What did you think? 7y
TrishB @mom2bugnbee I did 😀 and you were right I cried! God, what an ending! Have just got the second one and Night Road. 7y
mom2bugnbee Yes, @TrishB, I was good right until the end! I cried at the end of this one as well. She's definitely moving up my author list. 7y

Kristin Hannah has a way of writing massive sagas that cover so much ground, almost like the second half is a sequel. This one's about family, jealousy, and ultimately love. I saw most of the major plot points coming from a mile away, but it was an enjoyable read!

Flying through this family saga. Not quite at the halfway point and it feels like so much has already happened! Interested to see where it goes.

I received a huge box of her books for my book club and that was the first time I was introduced to her work. I have been in love with her story telling ever since.
