Résumé
As a child, Annie Baskin envied her older sister. Sarah was beautiful, smart, popular, and contemptuous of her messy, graceless kid sister. Annie grew up in Sarah&’s shadow, knowing she was second-tier, second-rate, an also-ran. The other Baskin girl.Now an… adult, Sarah lives a life of perfection: perfect husband, perfect children, perfect home. Annie has made peace with her own far less elegant life. But when a crisis shatters Sarah&’s world, she turns to the one person she can rely on: her sister Annie.While Annie performs favor after favor for her sister, she becomes deeply embedded in Sarah&’s exquisite world. All this could be hers, she realizes—if she can believe she&’s worthy of it. If she can convince herself she wants it. If she can figure out who she is, where she belongs, and what she&’s capable of. Laughter and tears. Fury and compassion. Resentment and love. As Annie learns, sisterhood is all those things, and more.
