Angeline Boulley‘s new mystery is set in the same world as the Firekeeper‘s Daughter series. Read my full review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#sisters-in-the-wind

Publication is expected September 2.

EKonrad I haven‘t read the Firekeeper‘s Daughter yet but just got this one in the mail. Do you think it‘s necessary to read that one first? 🤔 3d
JoyBlue @EKonrad IMHO it would *greatly* enhance your experience to read Firekeeper's Daughter first. See my review for what the publisher says about reading order. 2d
EKonrad Thanks so much! Just bought a copy! 😊 2d

This was a moving family drama!

The book starts off strong. The story is about 3 sisters who reunite at their home on the Japanese coast. Immediately, I was invested in the story and the scandal involving the youngest sister. The ending was also very strong. It was touching and packed an emotional punch. However, the middle of the book was slow and dragged on.

In Hangzhou in 815, two snakes dream of becoming human; hundreds of years later, Su is the perfect wife to an up and coming politician in Singapore, while Emerald is wild, free and broke in New York. When Emerald's date with a would be sugar daddy makes the news, Su rushes to help, only to see her carefully cultivated self-control shatter and her secrets threaten to drive her sister away for good. A vivid, fast-paced and fascinating tale of family

This is a shorter book, & I borrowed it from my friend‘s LFL. I just didn‘t get into the storyline on this one, but others may love it. A widow is dealing with grief after her husband dies, then has 2 different events going on—being drawn into helping an undocumented Mexican couple and searching for a missing sister with her other sisters. I‘m still going to read another Alvarez book, i just didn‘t love this one. 3⭐️
