The Perfect Sister


 

“The Perfect Sister” by Stephanie DeCarolis
Published by Bantam Books / Random House
 
When Alex’s sister goes missing, she goes searching for her in the Hamptons.  During that search we learn about their poor dysfunctional family and meet a new rich dysfunctional family.  Not one normal, run of the mill, character in this book.  But everyone is given their own point of view chapters so that you can get to know them each better, and dislike them even more.  Well, except the sisters… they are somewhat likable characters.  The book is definitely full of twists and turns – just when you think you figured it out, something happens or is said to change your mind.  It’s all pretty far-fetched, but the author keeps you pulled along at a pretty good pace. It’s not a masterpiece, but it’s a good read.  And in the author’s acknowledgments there is mention of movie and TV rights so maybe there’s more to come.
 
Thank you to NetGalley, Bantam Books, and Random House for the complimentary copy of this book.  As always, the opinions expressed within this review are completely my own.
 
Finished 7/17/24 – 3/4 stars
