2011 book 102

Rebecca Rasmussen's The Bird Sisters
Millie and Twiss are a pair of elderly sisters who live together and help rescue injured birds. Most of the book is a series of flashbacks to a pivotal summer in their lives, and the story of how they became a pair of spinster sisters. And that story bummed me out a lot. Not to say this isn't a good book, just man, I wanted a happy ending--even though I knew exactly how it would ultimately end! (The path wasn't entirely what I expected, however.) I dunno, B+.
