my 7 yr old daughter loved this

[Prabhjot Kaur · Rating 4 out of 5]

Raina is fourteen years old and she has a younger sister, Amara, and a younger brother, Will. Her mum is planning a road trip to Colorado from California with Raina and Raina's siblings. Both Raina and Amara aren't thrilled to be in the car with each other as they constantly fight. They may be sisters but not much is common between them except for their art and drawing.

This was fun and cute. Although the story was quite predictable, I nonetheless loved Raina and Amara's bickering. I loved that they are quite different yet the same. But most of all, I enjoyed Raina Telgemeier's art. It is cheerful, uplifting with subtle colors and displays stunning backdrop scenery from California to Colorado. A good follow-up to Smile.

4 stars

That's so not true

Being a younger sister myself I believe this comic was written by an elder sibling. Younger sibling don't always keep crying.

Well one point which was correctly showed was elder sibling not sharing their stuff with younger siblings.

Anyways it was funny. I found it very relatable since I have an elder sister. And the comic was like 'SO WE'.

i want to read the book

[Mai Ly · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have read this book many times and I never get tired of reading it over again. I think I enjoyed this book most because it has a good moral for all Pre-teens. Of course the book is about two sisters and their relationship, this I find entertaining.

A very hilarious memoir I've ever read!

This graphic memoir talks about the author (Raina) and her sister's (Amara) relationship which they have very different traits, preferences and interests. The book mainly shows their summer trip to Colorado for a family reunion with their cousins from their home at San Francisco. During the trip, there are more drama when the duo had conflicts and there'll be flashbacks of scenes happened in the past too.

If you have a younger sister/brother, you most probably have the same problem as Raina. But when time goes and you grow up with your younger siblings, you'll start to appreciate their presence and love being with them around.

This ARC is obtained from NetGalley in exchange of honest review.

Great book about relationships between siblings. Read Smile before Sisters. It'll make more sense.

Beauty in disguise. Great book.

This excerpt shows a beautiful relationship between two cute sisters and their sweet and sour funky relationship. It made me laugh and sigh. This book made me feel so sad that I don't have a sibling. Definitely buying this book no matter how expensive it is.

This book is so amazing and kind of inspiring which is totally cool because I really love inspirational books ! Sisters is so good for teaching how to not always fight and you should take it easy sometimes and it helped me a lot . 💟

I loved it it was a relatable comic about life with a sister or just family in general.I also think that I have actually done or said some of the things in this book.The author must have known what she was doing.😁

La verdad es una novela grafica muy entretenida, mientras lo leía me reía una banda, habla sobre la hermandad, los problemas de las vida y estar en una familia grande, es muy entretenido y divertido, es muy probable que si lo lees te guste, además me copo una banda que la historia es verdadera, ya que la protagonista es la autora
