Three Wishes by Liane MoriartyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Moriarty is yet to write a book that I don't enjoy. She just has a knack for characters and immersing you into a short period of their lives. This book is also REALLY funny. I was listening to the audio and a number of times found myself laughing spontaneously.
The story begins with eye witness accounts of three sisters (triplets) jointly celebrating their 34th birthday when everything goes wrong. Then we go back in time to discover how it all came to escalate to that point. The relationship between the sisters is awesome, you just want to hop in and be a Kettle sister too! But like any family they do have squabbles and possibly stick noses in where it is not required from time to time ;)
I thought the way Moriarty wrote the three sisters was not just compelling reading, but also gave them really distinct personalities and an "order" from eldest to youngest, while still being triplets ; which could not have been an easy task.
