This book is a beautiful story of two sisters and their love for one another. I absolutely loved their story. It definitely has its sad moments but there are great laugh out loud moments as well. The shenanigans that go on between Harlie and River are out right hilarious! Absolutely loved it and I think it is a must read!

I really enjoyed this book. It’s a short read that I finished in one sitting. There’s great characters and a lot of emotion in this story. Lots of hilarious moments and sweet memories between the sisters Harlie and River that cheer you up from the tragedy. The end is great. Overall a very enjoyable read!

So good!

This was a good, quick read with likable characters. The plot moved along quickly to a climax that I didn’t expect. The conclusion was funny at times, a little sad but over all heart warming. Great read!

This is a touching story about a girl who loses her parents and is raised by her older sister. 10 years later, she loses her sister and is in a deep depression for six months until her sister decides to haunt her. I loved this story about loss and finding your way back to yourself.

Beautiful story about the love and bond between sisters. This one was an emotional read for me as I became immersed in their story of angst, drama, grief, love, depression, and life happenings. Loved the bond and support they had for each other.

I just finished River in the Waves by Cris Burl. The story is so heartwarming and will take you on an emotional journey. Beware: you will laugh, cry, as you take this roller coaster ride through the lives of two sisters, their family, and love interests. I adored this book.

A very short read but one with plenty of drama, angst, action, and family relationships. Easy enough but beware as there may be triggers for some who are dealing with grief.
