I loved Sittenfeld’s other novels and have been wondering about this one. It sounds awesome.

I tried but could not finish it. Those girls bugged me to no end. Sisterland is not so much about the relationship between the two. There’s a plot twist I liked but some may find implausible. Let me know…

I have a copy around here somewhere, packed into one of these boxes to move or store or something, and I’ll have to dig it up.

Maybe it’s just the twin connection, but some of your descriptions remind me of Her Fearful Symmetry — have you read that?

What got me was the complete element of surprise. The plot is turned upside down and I bought it. I also think she does a marvelous job looking at relationships.

Based on your review I think I’m going to read it. Thanks!
