Resumen del Editor

Three sisters, one birthday, one little problem...

The three Kettle sisters have had a mortifying mishap. Their raucous, champagne-soaked birthday dinner has come to an abrupt end following a violent argument and an emergency dash to the hospital.

So who started it this time? Was it angry, hurt Cat, still recovering from the 'night of the spaghetti'? Was it Lyn, so serenely successful, at least on the outside? Or was it quirky, dreamy Gemma, the sister who can't keep a secret except for the most important one of all?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"I adored Three Wishes...fresh, very, very funny...also intelligent and unsentimental about family dynamics." (Marian Keyes)

Too Many Loose Ends

I was torn on whether to give this book two stars or three, and obviously decided to go with three. The fact that I was fairly addicted to this book from the beginning was the factor that sealed that decision. For me, the book started off well, presenting us with the dynamics and associated life struggles each sister was dealing with. I think most of us could in some way identify, on some level, with any or all of the sisters in this book. The downside for me was the resolutions, or lack thereof, in some of the story lines - most notably the one with Cat's marriage and with Gemma's history with Marcus. *SPOILER ALERT* - Not that I needed Cat's marriage to end up happy with all forgiven, it's just that I thought it was hokey the way the final scene between her and Dan played out at the park. And, I didn't understand why there was so much given to Gemma's abusive history with Marcus but then nothing ever came of it later in the story. Maybe that was "artistic license" but it just didn't' work for me.
Caroline Lee was great with the delivery of the story

Loved it!

Absolutely loved this story! Funny, sad, heartwarming, makes you think and reflect. So many areas to relate to.

her first novel...

This is her first novel and it is not nearly as good as the following books. I read this one last and did not enjoy it much. I absolutely love all her other books! Especially 1. What Alice forgot and 2. Big little lies. In comparison with those later books, Three Wishes cant measure up.
