Wanting a novel that shares the joys and experiences of a Sisterhood of friends ?

Review: Kindred Spirits - Sarah Strohmeyer -2011
Are you a fan of those novels that celebrate the love of a sisterhood ? Do you admire those novels that have formed a group of friends who can overcome anything together , they share their deep and darkest secrets , drink wine or in the case of Kindred Spirits - martinis and cocktails ? For me , personally I've never really been one too have many close friends and sometimes when I read these novels ,I've envied the relationship and I always wonder that when I'm older - will I meet a group of friends who will become my sisterhood ? Until then, I can live through the experiences of sisterhoods with novels like Kindred Spirits by Sarah Strohmeyer.
Kindred Spirits follows the journey of three friends - all in their 40's/50's and begins when the fourth member of their group Lynne committed suicide after a long hard battle with cancer. Leaving instructions for the threesome to clear her closet , Lynne has left for her friends three letters - One for Mary-Ann, Beth and Carol- the remaining of the sisterhood , One for her mother Eunice and one for a daughter that she gave up thirty years ago- Julia.  Lynne's dying wishes was that her three friends go on a road-trip to visit and pass the news of her death onto her aunt Therese and her mother Eunice - both whom Lynne has not seen in over thirty years and the last wish was to find her Julia . So the three begin a journey which as we will see is not just about fulfilling Lynne's wishes but a journey to self-discovery and the fact that life is only just beginning for these three women. A Journey which will see flashbacks of their lives , memories of families , secrets opened up and revealed.
Kindred Spirits by Sarah Strohmeyer is a lovely novel that for whom anyone who loves the tale of Sisterhood and the bond for strong friends will enjoy.
