The Bird Sisters, by Rebecca Rasmussen, 304 pagesMilly and Twiss are elderly sisters living in a small town, who don't see many other people unless someone stops by with an injured bird. But when they were young, they had dreams of something more; one pivotal summer and a visit from their cousin changed everything. This was a tough book to get into- the story alternates time periods and there are some family dynamics that were hard for me to get past; but around the half-way mark, the story picks up and the ending is a very emotional one. This was the author's first novel.
