The Flannigan girls stick together...

 

Claire, Elena, and Becca were not only sisters but the best of friends growing up relying on each other for love and affection amidst a home lacking in love. As they grew older things shifted, life took them in separate directions. When Claire’s husband is offered a new position in his company, leaving him gone more than at home, Claire’s insecurities of abandonment rise, threatening to unravel the tight-knit family she’s worked so hard to maintain.

 

Determined to uphold her promise of never letting her children feel unloved, Claire confronts her own feelings of neglect and must learn to reconnect with her sisters. Through Claire's story, the sisters must rediscover the importance of familial support and the enduring strength of their bond.

"The Flannigan Girls" is a testament to the enduring power of sisterhood and the importance of familial support. Wendy Haller's writing is evocative and moving, making this novel a must-read for anyone who values the intricacies of family dynamics. Prepare to be moved, inspired, and reminded of the strength found in the bonds of family.

I'm a 55-year-old man who enjoys naval adventures and thrillers. I am not the person the author had in mind when writing this book, but I was hooked from the first page.

Nothing happens. A pregnant woman delivers a baby. A guy gets a promotion. And yet, the characters are so compelling and relatable, and the family dynamics are explored so faithfully and poignantly, that I was as enthralled by a long-distance phone call between sisters as I am when Patrick O'Brian sends Jack Aubrey into battle.

This is a remarkable debut novel by a gifted and insightful observer of everyday life. I look forward to her next novels.
A true coming together of family. This book not only delves into the complicated relationships between sisters from childhood into adulthood. It tosses the reader right into the crazy, complex, and often sensitive extended family dynamics most of us have no idea how to manage on a good day. When we marry and have kids, we make our own little family and can shape it however we want. What happens when we need help? If we need to lean on our own families or our in-laws, do we expect help in times of trouble or need?

The Flannigan Girls is that story. Sometimes you reach out to vent with a friend. Sometimes you reach out because you need help with carpooling. You don’t usually reach out to hear that you aren’t a good parent or that your house is a mess, you should really have done the laundry!

Buckle up! Get ready to laugh and cry. Wendy Haller delivers with this debut novel.
