When I first heard about this absolutely wonderful book, I had read a review on my ldsforeverfriends group on Yahoo, though we're on GoogleGroups now. Anyway, I just had to have this book, so actually won a gift certificate in order to buy it, so I went home and actually devoured it while going through Agressive Chemo last year. It is truly amazing what Carroll, Lael and Nancy have accomplished with this book. I laughed and cried with all three of these wonderful ladies who have problems like we all, even in the Church, have. This is such a gem of a novel and would make a very rich and heart-warming film. I haven't read Three Tickets To Peoria, but will, as it's sitting or rather lying on my computer desk/hutch beside me. I plan on getting a copy for my aide for Christmas. Almost Sisters, that is. This is a 6 star book!!!!
I laughed and cried.

As I read "Almost Sisters" I laughed and cried. It is extremely well written, and very touching. It is easy to read, but also very deep and meaningful. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone.
They did it!

Carroll Morris (one of the three authors) shared the idea behind this book with me about the time she, Lael and Nancy began to write it. As a writer myself, I wondered just how she, Lael and Nancy would merge their story into one,cohesive whole given the three authors' varied writing styles and life experiences. There was no need to wonder or worry! The characters in Almost Sisters are real women with real problems. They live and breathe on the page. I cared deeply at the end of the first novel about these women, and you will, too. I can hardly wait for the next installment. Do yourself a great favor and buy this book! (Actually -- do a friend or family member a favor and buy a second copy for her -- or him -- too!)
