between sisters by kristin hannah

genre: fiction/chick lit

recap: {back cover} years ago, meghann dontess made a terrible choice that cost her everything, including the love of her sister, claire. now meghann is a highly successful attorney who doesnt believe in intimacy - until she meets the one man who can change her mind. claire cavenaugh has fallen in love for the first time in her life. as her wedding day approaches, she prepares to face her strong-willed older sister. reunited after more than two decades, these two women who believe they have nothing in common will try to become what they never were: a family. tender, funny, bittersweet, and moving, between sisters skillfully explores the profound joys and sorrows shared by sisters, the mistakes made in the name of love, and the promise of redemption...

review: good. heavy, though, which most kristin hannah books are. or at least the ones i've read. read it all in 2 days. i hate how someone always has to get sick for the big realizations to happen. can't they ever just... happen? also, i know claire was supposed to be the nice one, but i related much more to meg. acts angry and bitchy, but is really just lonely and hurt. claire was actually the bitchy one, i thought. lighten up a little.
