This is a story about 2 sisters Rose and Maggie who have absolutely nothing in common except for their shoe sizes.
Elder sister Rose has everything going on for her with a high profile lawyer job, a good looking boyfriend, lots of money. She also has loads of designer shoes but never wears them as she is insecure about her weight and just stacks it up in her closet.
The younger sister is a good looking and good for nothing kind. She has dyslexia and lack of confidence in herself and has difficulties finding a job. She stays mostly on her father and step mother's money and at times with her sister.
This goes on until one day Rose comes home and finds Maggie in bed with her boyfriend which leads to big altercation between them and she throws Maggie out of her house.
The younger sister now finds herself on street with nowhere to go when she finds a letter from her grandmother in Florida amongst her old stuff. And so she goes to stay with her grandmother.
The rest of the story is about how the sisters find their true characters and how they really need each other in their lives and how they make amends with each other and their past.
This is truly an endearing and a heart warming story and anyone who has a sister can actually connect with this one even more.
And also for people who are really lazy to read a book they can see the movie which was made with the same title starring Toni Collette and Cameron Diaz as the Elder and Younger sisters.
I am planning to get this book from the library today :)
