The Storm Sister (The Seven Sisters, 2)

Product Information

All this, in favor of telling Pip's story, which I feel was such a let down after the tantalization I was put through. She loves the sea and makes her mark as a sailor, but she also falls deeply in love with Theo Falys-Kings – which is an anagram of Alcyone’s Greek mythological lover, the King of Thessaly. Luckily, he was a prolific diarist and correspondent and there’s nothing better than reading the words that those historical figures have actually written. Maybe it's because my family sails but Theo's death which was probably supposed to make me sad actually make me fucking livid. This novel contains the usual outlandish descriptions, and it would be lovely to harness the power that creates unnecessary fluff, and put it into creating more realistic and complex characters.

Alcyone, known as Ally, is sailing the Mediterranean with her new boyfriend Theo when she learns that Pa Salt has died. El escenario en el que se desarrolla, hermoso y ni que decir de la música en la que se basa gran parte de la trama, simplemente ¡espectacular!I’m sad to say that I didn’t enjoy this book nearly as much as the first in the series and there’s two main reasons for that. There, Ally begins to discover her roots – and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a young unknown singer, Anna Landvik, who lived there over a hundred years before, and sang in the first performance of Grieg's iconic music set to Ibsen's play 'Peer Gynt'. I found this sequel to be a great read though you have to have your wits about you to keep up with the many characters with similar names and the twists and turns of the story. I don't like having everything explained to me, so I miss subtlety and nuance in her writing, the 'between the lines' if you will - but that might just be me.

He was controlling, pushing for too much commitment too soon and actually admitted to Ally that he believed his choices were more important than her fears but his fears were more important than her choices. Also while reading I felt like the author has poured all her best emotions while penning this story.

The Storm Sister is the second book in the Seven Sisters series about six girls adopted from around the world by a mysterious billionaire who begin quests to discover their origins after his sudden death. You become stronger after reading this books, because you realize that you must never stop exploring and following your heart.

Ally has also recently embarked on a deeply passionate love affair that will change her destiny forever. The sheer arrogance of 'I get to patronize you in the name of protectiveness, but you don't get to veto my self-destructive decisions' drove me up the fucking walls.

Following the bestselling The Seven Sisters, The Storm Sister is the second book in Lucinda Riley’s spellbinding series based loosely on the mythology surrounding the famous star constellation. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.
