Synopsis – Sisters Making Mischief
Joy Chandler has had enough!
All she wanted was a lovely family Christmas with perfect turkey and luxury crackers. Instead, daughter Sara announces she’s getting divorced…and where is the fizz? And son, John and perfect wife Vanessa announce they are leaving for New York… and are the vegetables organic? And not one of them has made her a cup of tea!
So Joy decides she’s going to leave them all to it and head to France to visit her younger sister Isobel – a break from it all is just what she needs!
Isabel’s potato farm in France might be rustic, but Joy is hoping to find a bit of the old her again. Do her family really only think she’s their dogs body? Where has Joy’s joy gone?
Being with Isobel is loud and chaotic and being together brings out both sisters’ mischievous side! And being in France adds a welcome touch of ooh la la to Joy’s life again. Soon, she has a new job, a new man and maybe even, a second chance at living!
An uplifting and hilarious story about living life to the full and always, always having fun! Perfect for fans of Judy Leigh and Dee Macdonald

My Review
Sisters Making Mischief by Maddie Please
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I had previously read Old Girls on Deck by this author and enjoyed it so I was looking forward to this one. Sisters Making Mischief started strong. I laughed several times as I was reading it.
The ending was also very cute. Similar to the beginning – it was witty and funny. The middle of the book was not as strong for me. I think I expected more escapades with the sisters.
The story is one of finding yourself and reinventing yourself after tremendous life change. It is an uplifting message and I love that the characters are older.
If you enjoy feel-good women’s fiction, especially if you enjoy humor you should definitely give this and some other books by this author a go.
