Nantucket Sisters

Audio version

I just finished listening to this one on my walk this

morning. It has been a fabulous story to listen to

when I am out in the sunshine. I wonderful tale

full of female friendship. Gosh, it's fun to read a story

of strong women that manage to find their way

back to each other no matter how long they

are apart or how far away they are from each other.

Emily Porter is from the wealthy side of Nantucket.

Her mother does try to bring her up in the traditional

Nantucket way. And she does succeed to a degree.

But when Maggie McIntyre and Emily meet as

children, there is a bond formed. And even Emilys

strong willed mother cannot ever completely break it.

I enjoyed the story of their friendship starting as

children. Emily always kind of wishes she could be

one of the 'island people'. Like Maggie is. Their lives

go in opposite directions and then together and

far apart and then together. The ebb and flow of

life, family, love. The constant changes that we all

have are shared between them.

Its a sweet story. While there are a couple parts that

I struggled with. It is what it is. Life. 

Unpredictable. Impossible. Ecstatic. Joyful.

Unbearable. Shocking. Love. Forgiveness.
It's all in this story. 

Kate Rudd does the narration for this story.

She does a fine job. I would certainly listen

to her again.

I bought my copy of this from Audible.com
