When her father remarries, fourteen-year-old Amanda Maynard finds herself with an unwanted step-sister who is spoiled and a thief and who forces Amanda to a difficult decision that affects her father's happiness
Weekend Sisters is about a girl named Amanda, 14, whose parents are divorced. She lives with her mother and goes to visit her father on the weekends. Then, one day, she finds out her father is engaged to a woman who has a daughter a little older than she is... Amanda's relationship with her father is jeopardized, she doesn't like her soon to be step-sister, and everything about the situation seems to be going wrong.
I really expected something different from this book. It wasn't bad, it wasn't uneventful, it wasn't uninteresting... what was it, though? I guess it was realistic. I have no idea what I would do if I were in either girls' position. I think the thing is, it's a good book, just not exactly my style. Maybe I'm just not interested in a realistic step-family situation.
