Although the premise of this was interesting, in execution it was just too slow to hold my interest. 
This is about three sisters, Irene, Isla, and Agnes, whose father has just died. They are all estranged from him and have a very tense and distant relationship with each other. Their complicated family background has bled into each of their lives, and they all have similar struggles with openness and being emotionally available. 

Although the premise was interesting, this moves at a glacial pace, and relies heavily on the sisters' poor communication. The father is dead from the beginning, so in the first half of the book there is virtually no plot progress made, apart from the same point about the fractured and strained the dynamic between the sisters being made again and again. I got tired of waiting for something else to happen, so put it down.
